going to dinner at my next door neighbors house tonight, to meet his mom. and the guy across the street works w/ US as well.

so ever sit. is diff.

What defines nicer?

Just bigger, newer homes with bigger lawns?

What if it also means generic architecture, with very few trees, nothing to do within walking distance, and all your neighbors were $40K millionaires who are only 3-4 paychecks from missing their mortgage payment?

Two co-workers also agree B is the right place.

Choice A = OWN3D

[MissHell]

With the info given, I'd go with the better location = B.

Although I want to know when the houses were build. I prefer newer homes myself.

I never said if it was a positive or negative.

Now I carpool with my wife, which gives me an extra 1.5hrs a day 5 days a week that we never had before

can't control the children - or doesn't like children
My children don't need to be "controlled", and we spend lots of time together in the game room - which we didn't have room for at the old house.

compensation for a small ****
Dammit, you might have me there.

underground pot-farm
Negative. As I understand it, the clay content in the soil out here makes it hard to grow good ganja.

likes to waste money on utility bills
Can't speak for everyone, but my utilities are about $75/ month higher than my old house. 3 times the size of the old house, but eliminated the pool / spa.
