We lived between 466A and Brownwood for two years. Anxiety about the crowds runs from November until April. Left turning out of our street was almost impossible in the winter. Going to the mail station had to be planned because of the volume of cars and golf carts with their “unusual” driving moves. Salon appointments need to be booked three months in advance. Same with doctors. I tried to change my dental cleaning appointment and had to wait 6 more months. Restaurant seating was always a wait, and take out food could take two to three hours. Trips to the car wash have to be “timed”, too. Need to put your pets in a kennel during the holidays? Book that a year in advance. If you’re willing to jockey for position five or six months a year, it’s a beautiful place to live.
