HOUSING SOUNDS LIKE MAJOORITY EITHER TOO HIGH OR N - 1/24/2011
WOULD BE GREAT IF YOU COULD DESIGN A GATED COMMUNITY ROOFED WITH AMENITIES AND REC AND ONLY SMALL APTS, OR STUDIOS TO KEEP COST DOWN
If you can, then this would be a swedish model and a good gated retirement communhity
40% of retirees are now in AZ, TX, FL, NV-too much revenue lost
I lived here 55 yrs. There is nothing to do here anymore-no0 ski busses that pick you up as in CO-no cold weather domes or patios and few indoor rec schedules-U7SE THE MODELS FROM AZ-MY FRIENDS COME BACK LOOKING LIKE A MILLION BUCKS-THEY HAVE A FULL 1/2 4 HR. DAY OF REC AND EXERCISE TOGETHER-NO ONE SITS AND LOOKS AT THE WALLS OR GOES TO PERKINS ALL WINTER
DEVELOP THIS STATE-ITS A NORTHERN STATE NOT SUMMER
FEW TO NO GROUPS OF WOMEN ARE ICE FISHING OR ICE TRAVELLING OR HAVE SNOWMOBILES OR $400 FOR THE CLOTHES
FEW ACCESS AT ALL TO NORTHERN ACTIVITIES
WE HAVE TALKED TO STATE BUILDERS-NOT INTERESTED IN DESIGNING NEW HOUSING
