Question for Oddball
Do you actually live in Winston Salem? The reason I ask is that my wife and I are interested in a piece of property there for the future plan of building and moving in a few years. Just going by the listing, and google maps, the area looks pretty nice and is close enough to shopping to keep my wife happy, and far enough from the city to keep me happy. Also, at 5.4 acres, it's big enough to keep neighbors at bay! I would appreciate any thoughts on the area if you know it. Or maybe swing by and have a look at it for me. I hope it's OK to ask!
3588 San Carlos Rd, Winston Salem, NC 27105 https://www.zillow.com/homes/for_sal...ct/10_zm/1_fr/ |

That address appears to sit right in the middle of an ancient Indian burial ground.

Take a look at the crime maps. Go a few miles east to the Kernersville area, and it's really nice. Or go West of highway 150 which runs north and south through the center of town. Lewisville and Clemmons are great. I'd shy away from most area's on the East side. And stay the hell away from anything in the South-East side. Most areas all around Winston that are outside the city limits are nice. Rule of thumb; stay East of Salem Lake, West of 150, South of West Clemmonsville Rd., and North of Shattalon Dr. and Oak Summit Rd. There are area's inside that, that are Ok and some that are really nice, but that should give you a rough guideline. Where? |

I think I might have found something else in Lewisville that fits all of my requirements too. Not as much land, but enough to keep me happy. Whatcha think of this one? https://www.zillow.com/homes/for_sal...ct/10_zm/1_fr/ Edit: Hmmm...on second thought, that property seems to slope a bit from the street. Not sure how much work it would take to build on it. |

My youngest knows how to shoot. She's working on her stance, but she's not afraid of my .357! My oldest doesn't give a shit about guns, though.
