Speaking of places to live, I mean. Is there anything weird about Mustang that I should know about?
We're looking for a place that roughly splits the difference between commutes. H works in the Penn Square area, and I work near OU. My commute is against traffic, so I'd rather have the longer one - ideally we want H's to be only about 15 min or so due to his line of work. We're looking for a neighborhood that has lots on an acre or so, and that isn't in the ghetto. This is harder than I thought, actually. Do you have any suggestions for areas?
Re: What about Mustang?
I'm not sure what your price range is, but there are several very nice neighborhoods with large lots. Have you looked off Garth brooks/cemetery road? My parents looked in Fawn Trails (they have decent sized lots, not sure if they're an acre) and I've driven by several others in that area.
Feel free to PM me if you have specific questions about mustang
BL, you have no idea how helpful that information is for me. We were both starting to get really discouraged after we started figuring out our acceptable parameters. This is exactly the kind of information I was looking for.
I think we've got similar situations, too. We'll be moving from NW OKC, and looking for country-style living as well, but we need something that we'll be able to sell again later on down the road, so a safe, growing town is a big plus. We're going to have to get serious in a month or two...I really can't wait!
As time goes on I'll probably send you a pm about more information. Thank you!!!
We recently moved to Mustang from Blanchard and we're in the process of building a house there right now. So far, we like it. It really depends where at in Mustang you live concerning the commute. We live on the northeast side. I feel like we are so close to everything. It takes me 15 to get to Penn Square. Less than 15 minutes to get to the south OKC. 8 minutes to Wal-Mart. 5 minutes to the outlet mall. Coming from a 25 minute drive to absolutely anything in Blanchard, I feel like I'm city living in Mustang!
My mom has been looking for a reasonably priced acreage in the area for awhile now. Her favorites are Fawn Trails and Sara Homestead. Sara isn't an acreage, but they are decent sized lots. There are a few other neighborhoods with nearly acre lots, but I can't think of their names.
