[quote=Anonymous]A lot of factors to consider. How close are the houses to the street? Are there fences, trees, other natural barriers between the house and the street to block out sound and prying eyes? Is it busy all the time? Just at rush hour? How fast does traffic move? What are sidewalks like? Are there bike lanes, parking lanes, or other barriers between the yard and traffic? Does the busy street also mean proximity to certain useful/desirable resources? Like does the busy street mean you can walk a block to the grocery store (and how pleasant is that walk)? Does it mean you are right across the street from a great park, so that older kids could go play in the park and you could see them from the living room window (and how safe would it be for kids to cross the busy street on their own -- are their lights? do people obey them?). And so on. It's just very dependent on the actual location. There is no standard "busy street penalty."[/quote]
