[quote=Anonymous]I do live at a T intersection.  My house faces along the vertical part of the T and I am in the left-hand corner of the top of the T.

Our family room is on the back of the house and we used to have trouble with headlights shining into our family room from cars traveling along the top of the T.  But we put in some evergreen trees along the back corner of our lot and these now block the headlights when we are watching TV.

The bigger problem is that both streets are semi-busy (busy for suburbia, but not busy for inner suburbs).  We have plenty of people who drive more than 25 and head around the corners with rolling stops.  It was a concern when our kids were young.  We ended up putting in a picket fence to keep the kids and toys in our back yard as we were afraid that the kids would throw a ball and chase it into the street or something.

But other than minor issues and making adjustments like the fence and trees, it has not been a problem.  We have lived here 16 years and love the house.  Alternatively, one of the bonuses is that we have a larger lot than all of our neighbors with interior lots.  We have about 20% more property than the interior lots have because of being on the corner.  And it's great having the bigger yard when the kids (now tweens) want to play out in the yard with their friends.[/quote]
