Too crowded is a relative term as others have said. It certainly is way more crowded than when we bought 8 years ago. While the infrastructure that is directly linked to neighborhood growth- village pools and neighborhood rec centers has kept up with the growth to some extent, the number of executive golf courses and regional rec centers has not. While getting tee times for a group on the executive courses 8 years ago during peak season was never an issue, it now is a major issue. To get a lane in the sports pool for walking or swimming was easy back then, it is now significantly more difficult. However, on the bright side, if your interests are in shopping, the more people that move here, the more stores open to accept their money.

It's still a great place ... just not as good as it was 8 years ago in my opinion, but probably better than it will be 8 years from now if the growth continues. Of course, for the 7-8 quiet months, it will likely continue to be great.
