I'm afraid I'm not familiar with the neighborhoods that you have been looking at, but I would recommend checking out the Hidden Springs area. Not sure what type of environment you are looking for, but it's got a deliberately retro character (whoever designed it probably watched Pleasantville a few too many times). If you're looking for that kind of "swinging on the porch" family vibe, it's worth a look-see. They've even got a website: www.hiddensprings.com. And no, I'm not a shill for them, but I have heard very good things about their charter school. And it is less than 15 minutes from downtown. Good luck, Tricia!
