I hate big cities and would never live in an ant farm like that. I don't even like the idea of a subdivision but I can live with it. If you want to get packed in like sardines for the sake of a commute then feel free. I would never do it.

plus homeowner's associations. where nerds can be hitler.

yes, because everyone knows the role of hitler is rightly reserved for #######-for-brains jocks.

wait till one of them knocks on your door and tells your door isn't an approved paint color

Our HOA paints our doors for us. Once every two years.

Plenty of us walk... OMG... 2-4 blocks from home to get to the bus.

That's what I was thinking. It is not that big of a deal, even in rain or snow. You get used to it when it isn't really that far.

WALK??? OMG! OH NOES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

A friend of mine gets constant grief...in the suburbs...in his subdivision, from a group of old biddy retirees who have nothing better to do all day than peep around at everyone's house looking for the tiniest of infractions they can make up.

A beautiful few miles that would be.

Walk to work? cars cant even see you!

Not all areas are walkable, obviously.

Although my township has been on a sidewalk creation binge for the last decade.

Looks a little like the road I used to walk down every day to catch the bus in Witten. I was pretty pregnant too in the winter. I must be a master of physical ability!
