Once the commercial development along 468 is in everything will be within a couple miles. It is great down there and as development continues I feel it will be equal to any of the existing villages if not better. Not to mention having a poolside grill and cafe in the Rec. Center and the walking paths. A lot of greenspace will remain which is another plus. Give it a chance, go to the open house next week and see what it's all about. We bought there 2 weeks ago and can't wait until our furniture is delivered and we can move in.
I agree, and the only research needed to be done was to either read your post #13 or drive down there oneself and note mileage and time before making a negative statement.

I would live there in a heartbeat if it wouldn't mean selling/moving.
