In general, do you think it is a good idea to avoid houses that are on the edge of the development? You never can tell what will be built on the land in the future.

Like everything else, lifes a gamble...if its not the smell its the sink holes. If not any of those its the barking dogs or the rude neighbors. you just cant always win.
Find a street you like,then a home you like, and talk to the neighbors, and then you will know if its worth the risk to you. you can always change the colors or the yard, but never the location.
As far as growth...you can buy a beautiful lot, thats looks at the pastures and the owner can sell to a grocery store or whatever. you can buy on a retention pond, filled and beautiful today and empty the next....you just never know. at least if you buy a resale, you know whats around the corner.
good luck.....we are looking too...
