[quote=skerzz]Not sure, but perhaps has something to do with the low density (1 acre min lot size, and most homes have lots many times larger). We’re also not on city sewer, everyone has their own septic tank, there are no sidewalks, we know all of our neighbors by first name, and we frequently have deer visit the property. It’s truly like living in the country just minutes from freeways and PUD track homes.[/quote]
Yeah, I just looked at a couple of listings there on Redfin. I see now that it is made up of custom homes on septic. I could see how it is possible that utilities weren’t brought to every street.
I see that a few of your neighbors have cleared FAR down the slope from their homes and planted drought-resistant landscaping.
Good idea. Hopefully, your fire dept has access to nearby fire hydrant(s) on your street. If not, its every homeowner for themselves until the planes are called in. Compare to the likes of Oakland Hills ….
Oh, and it looks as though a sprinkling of your “neighbors” do have natural gas service. Maybe it was only brought into some streets but not others.
