Shadow Run covers 52.6 acres off Avenida Margarita, on eight streets over 1.5 miles: Honeywood, Quail Ridge, Royal Oak, Silverbrook, Smokeridge, Suncrest and Tablerock.

The general plan designates 49.8 acres Residential Low and a further 2.8 acres Parks.

How Shadow Run was built
Avenida Margarita runs through Shadow Run, and at 222 South Avenida Margarita sits Pelanconi Park, twenty seven acres of canyon that opened in 1975 and carries the names of Lorenzo and Martina Yorba Pelanconi, early landowners here. Martina was a Yorba, and that surname is the thread back to the beginning of this ground.
Anaheim Hills itself began on 30 October 1970, when Santa Anita Consolidated took deed to 4,200 acres of the Nohl Ranch to build a planned community, and a Texaco Ventures joint venture took over the residential land in August 1971. The first neighborhood, Westridge, opened in July 1972, and the city bought a separate 300 acres for a golf course that Richard Bigler laid out and that opened the same year. Shadow Run is among the earlier neighborhoods, with houses dated from 1967 through 1980 and 1977 the median year, so a handful here predate the planned community entirely. The rest of the street names describe the hillside as it was found: Quail Ridge, Royal Oak, Silverbrook, Smokeridge, Suncrest, Honeywood and Tablerock. Eighty one of the hundred and forty seven homes have a pool, on lots of around eleven thousand square feet.
