[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I posted this elsewhere too, but, I walk through our neighborhood and it’s eerily quiet these days. All the neighborhood kids, who once upon a time played outside for hours together, are all gone. Lots of high school & college graduates among them this year. The houses aren’t turning over yet.

I may need to move to a neighborhood filled with kids running around! [/quote]

OP, you might like living in a neighborhood surrounded by schools like I do. Within walking distance we have private and public from preschool to high school so young families are eager to move in. We've lived here since the late 90's when our kids were in elementary. It's a nice mix of neighbors, a few have lived here as long as us and we're still close and all our adult kids pop by for visits, some have grandkids now. More than half of the houses have sold over the years and have younger families from babies to teens. The only real con is that at certain times it's busy with extra traffic and parking on our side street. We back onto a private elementary and it is loud when they have recess and lunch, but some of it is cute to see and hear. [/quote]
