Fun fact: During the California Gold Rush era there was a town called "Prairie City". Although the exact location of Prairie City has been lost through the passage of time, most historians believe that it was located in the general area of Prairie Oaks.

The residential construction of the Prairie Oaks and Willow Springs neighborhoods began in the mid 1990’s and ran through the early 2000’s; with several different builders building homes in the area. Most of the homes are built on comfortably sized lots, some of which back to greenbelt nature preserves. The Willow Springs neighborhood is built around a small reservoir, wetland creating a lovely, peaceful ambiance.
