It is all a matter of (as the saying goes), location, location, location.
Those established area homes are pushing 20 years old now, and not so "prime" in condition. Some may prefer living in the old sections but many are choosing the new areas with new amenities only available south of 44. Take a look at today's Daily Sun to see all of the new stuff going on from championship golf to open air indoor market shopping to restaurants and entertainment, lots happening in the south, noting new in the established areas.
