[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand how people just move after living in a community their whole life.  I am fifty.  I have spent my whole life building a life.  My wife has friends, I have friends.  We belong to civic organizations, social organizations. There are professionals I rely on.  Trades people that I can count on.  I play golf. My wife plays tennis.  I have known my neighbors for many many years.  I can't imagine any circumstances where I would just pack up the car and move away, just to be a little closer to one of my children. [/quote]

I absolutely agree with this, but I have found that my husband and I seem to be in the minority when we talk about how important it is for us to be near our friends and neighbors and community organizations. I've even heard people say "I know you're supposed to care about that kind of thing but I really just want a bigger house." I think for a lot of people their only real relationships are at work and with their spouse and kids at home. [/quote]
