Choosing a community is often more important than choosing a specific kitchen or paint color.
Start with your weekly routine
Build your shortlist around commute needs, school priorities, recreation habits, and proximity to essentials. If a neighborhood does not support your weekly life, it will feel expensive even at the right price.
Compare in layers
- Lifestyle fit: pace, noise, neighborhood feel
- Home type fit: lot size, age, HOA, layout patterns
- Financial fit: taxes, insurance, expected maintenance
