If the privacy is an issue of being too close to neighbors, you could have bought a home with side plantings that block out the neighbor's view into your home or even tinted windows. I ive on a golf course, have tinted windows, and complete privacy.

Renting to see if you like it here is a good idea. That will give you a good idea of winter time residents and/or the summer weather.

Finally, even though most like it here, the houses do sell quickly so you can always sell and move elsewhere if you do not like it here.
