[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Would you happen to have a map of the tot lots? I am new to the area and have had no luck finding them and i hear there are 14! my toddler would love that![/b]

[quote=Anonymous]I live in Franklin Glen. Poster mentioning pool drama is correct. Honestly there is always drama in the neighborhood as is evidence by the postings on Facebook. FG gets lots of cut through traffic which you should consider when looking at houses.  I am not impacted by the traffic, but many homes are and there were many discussions about how to address it. Things died down with COVID, but I suspect the issue will arise this fall. Some people feel LCES has gone down hill a bit over the past few years. As a parent with two elementary aged children at LCES there is nothing impressive about the school, IMO.

Also, part of the neighborhood is across the parkway. Many people probably think that area belongs to FF, but part is definitely FG. A few other parts of the neighborhood are only connected by trails (roads off Stringfellow).

There are several Tot lots, tennis courts, and the pool is large enough for the community size. FG is only about 700 homes, I believe FF is over 2000. I am not sure if the size of CH.

FG looks nice, but there are complaints of cliques. LCES is fairly diverse, but FG itself is less diverse, though that has definitely changed over the last few years (a positive, IMO).

I have no idea whether FF or CH experience the same issues I mentioned above. My guess is you have some of this in every neighborhood. [/quote][/quote]

Do you live in the neighborhood? Community amenities are for the residents who pay to maintain them. Most of them have signs stating this. There are many parks owned by the county with wonderful playgrounds for little kids, including local elementary schools. People aren't going to publicly post a map of amenities that are not for public use.

If you live there, going for walks down paths to find one sounds like a great activity for a toddler. Or ask your neighbors. [/quote]
