I drive to MCO or Tampa 6 times a month on average. Being in St Cats (Sawgrass) saves me over an hour each round trip.
Our village has grown up nicely. Lovely walking and biking trails. Easy golf cart rides on dedicated paths to Middleton, Eastport, Brownwood or LSL. We rarely go to Spanish Springs - there is little we require up there. Maybe a long cart ride to BJs every other month or a yearly craving for Texas Roadhouse.
We have over 40 restaurants within a 35 minute golf cart ride.
My doctor is down here. Any services we need are down here.
To me, driving up Morse to the north is a sea of similarly colored houses, many have visible mold on roofs and siding.
I laugh when someone brags about upgrades. Personally, I want to pick the tile I want. Not what someone else has chosen.
Im glad some like to be in the north, but give me the southern end!
