The majority of reentry paths come in from the south, in which case, you won't hear or see anything. The reentry path sometimes comes in from the north west, in which case, it will fly close enough over The VIllages where you will hear the double sonic boom. Best chance is to "google" the shuttle reentry path a few hours before the scheduled reentry to verify the time and you will probably also find a diagram showing the path. You might find the information at the NASA site also... www.nasa.gov
