[quote=Anonymous]I'd think about your lifestyle. We live on a semi-busy street in NOVA (yellow lined, 25 mpr, one lane each way). We don't really mind the street. For the pros, the lots are genuinely larger, and ours has a larger back yard than those on the side streets near us. We are centrally located, with a quicker walk to the metro, some stores, and the local schools. Most people hang in their back yards, so we don't feel the need to have obligatory pleasantries with people we wouldn't normally talk to but for them being our neighbors. For the cons, drivers speed so the noise from the street is greater during commuting hours. The neighbors don't appear to be close. If you want a closer nit community then the smaller streets tend to have this dynamic. Resale value may be lower, [/quote]
