Chaparral Valley and Riverstone of Cranston are both built within the flood fringe. Wouldn't this cause negative impact to future value of these communities?
Walden is built on a closed landfill with a lot smaller units for younger/poorer families. Legacy, although now it is at middle of nowhere, however it started as a up-scaled community with expensive estate homes, I would choose Legacy over Walden.
Auburn Bay and Mahogany, both would cost you $500+ to $800+ in annual community fees for a couple month of lake access in summer. (I assumed most ppl would rather stay home in winter)
Walden is NOT built on a closed landfill. There is a now closed landfill ADJACENT to Walden that is set to become soccer fields / green space at some point.
Are you sure about the community fees in Auburn Bay & Mahogany? We're in Lake Chaparral and our annual fees are only ~$350. I think it's close to that in Cranston and they don't have a damn lake.
