1. Almost equal distance to SS and LSL. Very doable, by golf cart.
2. One gate entrance/exit. Unless a contractor needs to be in Alhambra, there is no through traffic, and I find it extremely peaceful, and quiet.
3. Short distance by golf cart to Publix, Walmart, Ace Hardware, and several restaurants on 466 via Wedgewood Ave. Even shorter, is the ride to the Saddlebrook Rec Center, access to softball fields, and the Polo Pony matches.
Another short ride to El Santiago pool for the kiddies. The Saddlebrook pool has a great view and is very nice. You can also buy tckets to the Savannah Center musical events and get guest passes.
4. Only a couple on minutes from The Savannah Center.
5. Going east on El Camino Real leads you to the big box stores, via Buenos Aires Blvd, and is very convenient in that within a five mile radius, there is Lowes, Walmart, Office Depot, Target, Bealls, Belk, Home Depot, Sam's, Kohls, Best Buy and Bed, Bath & Beyond, etc.
6. The Ahambra community hold a variety of events to get everyone invovled and publish a newsletter every month, Thing likes driveway parties, pool parirties, scavanger hunt followed by a get together at Glenview CC schedule for today. If your bored in Alhambra, it's your own fault as there are numerous events.

I drove my first realtor crazy by insisting I be exactly halfway beween SS and LSL, as he showed me houses in Alhambra,and I felt it was,way out of the way. Boy, was I wrong!!! I almost bought a house, back faced Morse Blvd. It would have been difficult, (15 to 20 minute wait), to get on Morse Blvd when the snowbird season starts up. WHEW, I'm glad I dodged that bullet!!!

A dear friend of mine convince to buy my house, as it was a corner unit, and I couldn't be happier!!!! Nice neighbors. My neighbor adjacent to me is in PA, and even when she is here, I never hear her. The neighbors across the way go to OH for six months. The lady behind me I have seen twice in one year, and only because, she was visiting my next door neighbor. It's so quiet, I can hear myself think!!!

Living large in Alhambra. I love it here!!!!
