I have several friends who moved to that area for the exact reason that you suggest not to. It is away from the things that people go to. That makes their neighborhoods quieter and more to their liking. They love it. As far "a short golf cart ride", many of them do not own carts because they don't golf. They use their cars just like they always have. Not a problem.

One person's "wasteland" is another person's "tranquil retreat".
