That can be a problem. Going south, I can be on the turnpike (by 470) in 10 minutes. Going north on 75, I shoot out 44 and get on just past 301, maybe 10-15 minutes...
It's one of the reasons I like my location so much... That, and there is only one gate/road in/out. No "pass thru traffic", very few "Lookie Lous"...
I do remember one time, when I was working an a sprinkler head in the front yard, a couple in a rental golf cart stopped and asked "How do we get to Brownwood Square?'" I asked them, "How the hell did you end up in here?"
They replied, "We have no idea!?
