We just bought in Chaparral, prices were the most reasonable for a slighty upgraded house that isn't stuck in the 90's, compared to other lake communities and Douglasglen/Dale. Riverbend is a dump.
New Brighton prices were close to same as Chaparral and the yearly community fees are the same and there's no "lake"
The commute may be longer but the enjoyment of the community for the wife and kids should balance that out.
Moved from Killarney and commute to beltline, so it will quite a shock for commute time but would rather that and have my kids grow up in the burbs.
