We looked at all those places before our recent move and finally decided on Auburn Bay.
1) The lake and amenities it provides are fantastic...
2) Evergreen was on the wrong side of the river for me and work via 22x...
3) Cranston is maturing nicely but so have the house prices. Auburn Bay looks to develop in a very similar manner so getting in early in the development seemed to give us the best growth potential...
4) The "Lake Fees" kinda suck but when you consider what you get for it, it;s not so bad. That being said.. even in cranston there are fees for the community association (Second hand info from a friend who lives there, and might only be for a specific part)
5) Hospital and associated buildings are going up right beside the entrance to Auburn bay... So... Maybe a traffic issue?... Maybe make the place even more desirable?... Who knows jury is still out on that one.
6) Juice lives there so, maybe you'll get to hang out with him on the beech
