Your morning coffee run doesn't require leaving home—the grocery and a restaurant are steps away, which means you're not burning half an hour just to grab milk or decide what's for dinner. But out here, "steps away" doesn't mean cramped; lots average nearly 8 acres, so your neighbor isn't close enough to hear your conversation, and the roads stay low-traffic even in summer.
