How to Find the Perfect Neighborhood for Your Next Home

Not only do you need to choose the best home builders in Hanover, PA when buying a new home, but you also need to find a neighborhood you love.  There are several factors to consider when it comes to choosing the best neighborhood for you.  And of course, some may be more important than others.  Take some time to drive around the neighborhoods you’re considering weigh the pros and cons of each.

  • Lot Size: Large lots are ideal for those who enjoy spending time outdoors and having more privacy, but that also means more yard maintenance.  Choosing a home with a smaller lot will require less maintenance and may be a more affordable option.
  • Proximity to Amenities: With busy schedules, many people prefer living close to amenities like grocery stores, pharmacies, and restaurants to save time running errands.  Others prefer to live further away from traffic and the daily hustle and bustle.
  • Schools: If you have school age children or plan to start a family, researching local schools may be a top consideration.  Look at test scores, school rankings, extracurricular activities, and sports to find one that will meet the needs of your family.
  • Neighborhood Aesthetics: When it comes to neighborhoods, they do not all look the same.  Some offer a variety of home designs built by different builders.  However, if you prefer cohesive home designs, choose a development from a single home builder in Hanover, PA.
  • Walkabilty: Is being able to walk or bike to errands or work a priority for you?  Or are you ok with a commute for the right home?  This is important to consider when choosing the best neighborhood for you.
