Well the real reason we chose this neighborhood was because of an answer to prayer. My wife and I had been looking for a larger home that meet our needs. Several years before we moved here, we were looking for places to buy and as we drove by this home, the thought came to my mind "someday I'm going to own that home". Several years passed and a friend of our who was a realtor said, I have a house you may be interested in. So before he said anything else, I knew what house it was and we immediately put an offer in on the house and, wallah, we now lived here for almost 30 years.
We could ask for better neighbors and a quite neighborhood. We know just about everyone and really enjoy each of them.
So we didn't really chose the location, it chose us and we've loved it!
