Isn’t there an actual creek that goes thru there named the Chitty Chatty creek? I think that’s where they got the name from for the village. I would think that it could possibly flood if you live close to it. I wouldn’t worry too much about the retention ponds or the preserve areas...however, that creek could be an issue. I came from IL and creeks overflowed their banks ALL of the time during the spring and heavy rains.
