Distance From City Amenities

You might want to be as far from downtown as possible. Then again, maybe you'd like to be able to walk to the mall. The proximity of libraries, hospitals, post offices, shopping centers, theaters, restaurants, hiking trails – whatever you want near or away from you, will also factor into your purchase. After exploring the neighborhood, investigate the rest of the area.

Distance From Work

You 'II also want to consider how close your home is to your employment. Will you mind the commute or do you want to be in walking/biking distance from your job? Maybe take the time on weekday morning to actually drive the commute route from the home to your job. Or maybe the area so perfect in every other way, that you just don't care how long it takes you to get to work. Only you can decide.
