No question you can get a more expansive home for less money in other developments. But look at the streets.

There is no one out. No one is tending their yard, riding a bike, chatting with neighbors - nobody.

It was tough, but we decided we didn't want to live in a house ~ we wanted to live in a community. No regrets at all.

Regarding clubs, I have only been to one that wasn't welcoming. A small knitting and crocheting group that looked at me like I was from Mars. Shake it off and move on!
Check the club list, there may be a club for people from Mars .
