We live at the "edge" and towards the back of a subdivision on a stub street that is next to a 13 acre wooded lot (homeowner next to us has acreage with the home at the front). We hope he never sells the land behind his house that is next to us, as it was in the process of doing about a decade ago to build houses, but it fell through. We've been here since spring 1997 and when we built this house, we really liked wooded area next to us. There wasn't a lot of lots left to pick from, but we wanted this lot. We get a lot of leaves and tree seeds in the springs and falls in the gutters and downspouts, but we love not having homes on the other side of us.
