You've pretty much hit the nail on the head - cost is probably the issue. Helps the developer keep prices for the homes seemingly more reasonable. Some people will pay for any upgrades they want when their new home is constructed, others wait til later, others just go with what they get. It all becomes personal preference for the homeowner.

Regarding natural gas - as Opus stated, availability north of 466A will depend on what village you're looking at. I believe Duval might have been the last village to have natural gas service for the homes - and I don't believe it was in all the homes in Duval. No natural gas service available for any of the homes currently being built.

And welcome to TOTV!!!!
