Of course I haven't bought neither at this point but I'd prefer a house over a town house because of having to share walls or worry about a nosy or loud neighbor.
I prefer a house. I think a lot of gated communities present a false sense of security. That, and I don't need the added hassle of gate security if I need a delivery to my home, have guests coming over, or there is a malfunction. Just secure your home with cameras and alarm system.
I live in a gated community of zero lot houses. The wife and I just bought another one nearby in another gated community that we'll move into in May. There have been no crimes, zero, nada, neinte, in the 15 years that we've lived in this house, and there have NEVER been crimes in the other community either. By crimes I mean
robberies or assaults by strangers. Maybe a guy/husband beat his GF/wife but that's not an issue to me an mine.
