Sorry, but you couldn't pay me to live on DaCosta. That area was total trash back in the 80s and 90s. I can't imagine what it's like now.

I wouldn't be totally opposed to moving back to town, but country life spoiled me as far as having neighbors 20' away. If I did it, I'd want to be in one of those areas where there were only one or two houses on a block and where I owned the rest of the property so no one else could build.

But $3K in taxes on a house worth less than $30.00 [[yup, a ten and a twenty) doesn't make sense. I can't imagine what the city would want in taxes for 8 or 10 vacant lots strung together.
