Just got around to looking at this thread. Sorry Kate, but I had to ask. Did you mean that the cost of a golf view was out of the range on the income of a hooker? Not casting aspersions at all, but I was a tad confused -- a common state for me.

As for preference for the golf course view, it is absolutely an individual choice. Many people seem to me to be almost anal about "privacy" and hate the closeness of the homes here. I agree more with a previous poster who commented that she loved to see activity. She/he loved seeing the golfers go by. Though I too really enjoy a quiet view of a lake or field (preserve or fairway), an ideal location for listening to some good jazz or light classical while musing over the foibles of man, I much prefer to sacrifice those rare moments to regularly seeing my neighbors walk their dogs or just congregate in the street. Wish I could afford that gorgeous home on Riley Grove, but I'm real happy with my end unit ranch where my back door neighbors have put in a park-like setting on their end lot.

I know there are scores of people who opted not to spend the extra bucks for the golf course house who now regret it deeply. And I'm equally sure that there are also scores of folks who would gladly trade their golf course house for an interior and the money. C'est la vie.
