There's everything right here. They're too expensive. About the only things the newcomers to the big subdivisions complain about are the lack of neighborhood schools and the narrow country roads. Highland Creek students are bused more than eight miles to elementary school. Susan McCutcheon, whose family moved to Wynfield Forest five years ago, said that when developers in Colorado built a new community, they had to build a school along with it.
Streets are a similar sore point with the newcomers.
Many of their subdivisions are reachable only by roads that are little more than paved wagon trails. Most of Highland Creek's morning traffic spills out the south entrance and onto Prosperity Church Road. The traffic back-ups are notorious. You're plunking several thousand dwelling units on two old country roads. Officials say they're constantly struggling to keep up.
