[quote=Anonymous]Where would you move? Even if you find and can afford a neighborhood with more families and where you can see kids riding bikes or walking around or playing at a playground, there is zero guarantee your kids will find friends and have that nostalgic lifestyle you have in mind. Kids tend to make friends in the environment where they see the same kids every day, e.g. school. Schools serve larger areas and their friends may not be walking distance away, which puts the pressure on parents to do playdates. In urban places where public playgrounds are the only "backyards", kids can meet each other locally, but you have to forgo SFH areas with backyards to have that critical mass of families socializing outside of their homes in common areas.
