We just got sudden news my husband was being transferred to the central Florida area. Now we have 3 weeks to move down there from PA! He will be transferring with his current company here in PA but was also just offered a job part time at Disney ( which we would love to accept just for perks alone!) I will post more detail on that once its official. We are pretty excited about it .
I need lots of help with choosing a safe area. I homeschool so schools are not a issue. Just safety and being within 15 minutes of the Disney parks . We want to keep it under 1,500 max so we can save to buy a house . We are looking for a home and not a townhome or condo. We dont care about pools .
Originally I wanted Celebration but you cant much over a townhome / condo and thats if you look really, really hard .
Then we looked at the townhomes in Windermere . Found some great ones on Reams rd behind the MK. I sent my husband to tour a few . In the end the townhomes just didnt appeal to me. I cant see myself in one. We just need more space and have to much stuff to be comfortable. Plus I hate being crammed against another house.
What about Davenport ? I have heard mixed things . I know the schools are bad but I HS so thats a mute point . How is the crime ? When I looked at the stats on here it shows as if its somewhat below the national average . But yet I have heard some bad things so I am confused .
How far would you say it is to the parks / Celebration ?( friends there) Would you say it feels safe ? Where do people that live in Davenport shop ? Are the shopping areas nice ? If not how far to nicer ones?
Most of the homes I have looked at appear to be just under the four corners area . Seems like you get a pretty nice home there for the money . But thats what makes me worry .
Any help or advice please. I am panicked about how fast we have to move so please please post as much detail as you can. Thanks a ton !
