Not trying to start a fight, but something we thought was interesting and perhaps, worth remembering.

You know, no one has ever said that to me, but I sort of get that feeling when I'm down in that area. There were a rash of breakends over a year ago in that southern, west of Buena Vista area, but it's apparently gone away. Maybe the feeling comes from the Villages in that area not being completely developed yet. On the other hand, I can't find the words to express the sense of security we have in the Northern Villages. You really ought to check out the Villages in and around Mulberry Grove, Chatham, Calumet, Springdale, Piedmont, etc.
