Thank you, TH!

[QUOTE=Pturner;299503]Hi Rugbyjohn,
We bought north of 466 because of the mature landscaping, the homes further apart, and our favorite golf courses and country clubs are on the north side. We enjoy both town squares. If you want new, north of 466 is not an option.

..................................

And now that the golf cart paths are being widened, I think that buying north of 466 is even more appealing.

Am I included even if I'm up by Mulberry only temporarily?

I will say staying this far north in the rental I notice that it's much quieter and less traffic. I met some people who recently bought in Orange Blossom Special and they seem very happy. I agree it's all preference. We'll permanently land centrally.

There are a couple of things you can consider. On the older homes built before 2006, I think, they are not built to newer construction standards as regards hurricanes. It may or may not be an issue. You do get a house in an established neighborhood with mature plantings and a home, possibly, with many upgrades you won't have to do yourself.

On the other hands in the new neighborhoods everyone is moving in at the same approximate time and meeting and greeting each other. It's far easier to get involved in a golf group, for instance, or any kind of recreational gathering when you're forming them from scratch. In an older neighborhood the golf groups are pretty well established. It won't matter if you're a gregarious person, I imagine, and know how to take the bull by the horns, but if you're laid back, like me, it could be harder to fit in easily.

In the end though, TV is such a beautiful place and the people are, almost without question, some of the nicest people you'll ever meet. We're almost all people with a positive attitude who are willing to take chances and meet new people with an open hand. Think about it, we've all left our homes and gone on an adventure with our hopes for a better future. At our age? Who could imagine?

I think someone may have given you some flawed information. We live north of 466 and our house was built to hurricane standards. I can't say when the changes came, but our house was completed in January, 2004 and they were in place then. We had the additional inspection the state offered done a couple of years ago (don't remember exactly when this was) and as a result, got a substantial reduction in our insurance. Several things go into this wind-whatever-it-is inspection such as the construction itself, the attic, the type roof (hip vs gable), etc. We've been here since Feb. 2004 and have had no issues except for the drywall residue in the kitchen plumbing which was resolved through the warranty department with no fuss whatsoever (cracking, siding, etc.).

You're right. I don't know why 2006 was in my head, but it was 2002 that Florida instituted the new building codes.

You said it, RichieLion! Most everyone who moves here had to give up either family, friends, or roots of some sort seeking a new adventure! We are all from somewhere else -- and so, it is easy to make friends no matter which neighborhood or village you choose.
