The amount of driving you will do just getting in or out of that development is crazy. The ride down 42 to this development and then the ride to find a gasoline station on 70. This is what awful suburbia we all left the northeast to get away from.
I am really disallusioned by the raleigh johnston county triangle area.
This place is really nothing special.
No real mass transportation suburban sprawl with a large illegal latino population. Overcrowded schools and overbuilding.
Time for me to look elseware, maybe Boulder, Santa Fe, Spokane, Madison Wisconsin,salt Lake City, Portland Or.
hmm I only expect mass transit in the big cities, DC, Boston, Phili, LA, that kinda thing.
It's nice to have it but I'm not use to mass transit in suburbia.
But then I guess I grew up in a location you'd hate. 7 mile drive to a gas station, 8 to the grocery store, 3 to the postoffice, and 15 to a mall/movie.
there's perks to being in town, where things are close. there's perks to being outside of town but the downside is the gas station might not be next door.
Salt Lake City has a nice dowtown area that is surprisingly walkable & safe - even at night. The public transportation is pretty good, thanks to the university and the recent Olympics. And the way it's placed betwen the lake and the mountains keeps it from being too sprawl-y. You might like it.
