    "I don’t commute....retired. There are no sidewalks here and our street has a large amount of speeders making walking dangerous. Some neighbors park on the county right of way destroying our water flow/drainage which has caused flooding here. Many homes are unkept even though there is an active hoa."

They are multicultural, down to earth and just fabulous. This is a community that rates above the rest . it is very common for folks to move up and down in house sizes and styles as their lifestyles change. Give me a call as I'd love to show you around. "
