Recently I was at an establishment north of 466, as soon as I said “Hi” to an individual, the usual question was asked. What Village do you live in? My answer “ South of 44”. Immediately I get the lecture: I would never live south. There is nothing there, no trees, no golf courses, no rec centers, no pools. And the best one is all the roads are straight. I've had this conversation before and my answer is always the same, “everyone has their preferences.”
I don't want to get into that debate. But, the questions continue, how much did you pay for your house, how much is the bond, you guys are destroying our lifestyle.
These conversation are what will destroy our Lifestlye! Why can't everyone just have their preferences and be happy!
Let me hear your opinions.

All the roads are straight? Really? I knew south is not as pretty as what we have here in the northern area (between the 6s) but I didn't realize that you don't have nice windy roads to add to the lovely atmosphere we have. I do also know that down south, there are not as many lovely plantings as we have in the more established areas.
You are correct, it is more a matter of preference.
