Everyone has opinions about the best location. The only one that should count is your own after you weigh everyone's suggestions. We live south of 466A and love the location. We are surrounded by amenities. The stores along 466 are easily and quickly accessed via 301. Spanish Springs can be a pain but Lake Sumter is easy to get to and Brownwood is nearby. We also frequently go outside of the bubble and enjoy being closer to Leesburg, Inverness and the Golden Triangle (Tavares, Eustis and Mt Dora). The turnpike is just a short distance from us and we can be in O-town in 45 minutes. Brownwood will expand as the "build out" gets closer and there is plenty of commercial space available along 44.
