What brought us all here is hard work and planning and open mindedness and a caring and accepting and flexible attitude. AND a pioneering spirit. It takes GUTS to relocate after having lived all of your life in one area and many have, while many others have been world travelers.

Nothing is keeping anyone out that wants to live here and has the means to do so.

Golf is one of the main draws and there are a LOT of golfers here.

There is no reason why. It is just the choices people make. I believe that almost everyone here grew up with not much money and saved and scrimped and sacrificed and did without in order to retire where they chose and they chose here. No conspiracy, just what happened.
