For us, the village that we were in was not all that relevant. We wanted to buy in a new area and that dictated one of a handful of villages where new construction was going on. We found a great golf course lot for $50K less than the ones next to it (the reason for the "discount" was and is a mystery). We can walk out our back yard to a rec center with a family pool which will be great when we have grandkids visiting. By shear luck, the size and orientation of the houses that were built on both sides of us gives us side-to-side privacy as well.
