What kind of person fits best in each?
Sometimes I think paying for the whole tamale is not very bright if I only want a soft drink? Are any TV residents ever second guessing their decision to move there?
Do you certain types of folks lean toward the huge....or the smaller one's?
Any ideas from residents and you're experiences will be appreciated.

My first question for either would be what services - shopping, medical, entertainment etc. are in the area. As the community gets smaller the services may be more distance and this may give you a problem as you age.
The second question is how far from my home are the places I will visit. Do I want to drive a couple of miles through residential areas to get any where.
