Milwood/Rattan Creek 4th of July - 06/15/11 09:53 AM
When we first moved to the area over 20 years ago, it was legal to set off fireworks. Being in a MUD (municipal utility district) put us outside the city limits and inside Williamson County. There was a lot of open and undeveloped areas we would go to with neighbors for a 4th of July celebration.
The neighborhood has been built out for many years and just a few years ago an ordinance was passed prohibiting fireworks in our neighborhood. In recent years, the HOA has set off fireworks at the park with the fire department present but given our current … (0 comments)

Definintion of a Duplex - According to Freddie Mac - 06/10/11 01:52 PM
It's not the same as mine. When I hear the term duplex, I envision a single building that looks like a house with 2 front doors and 2 garages - basically a house divided down the middle to create 2 dwellings. They share a common wall. Sometimes they are the same on each side and sometimes one side is smaller than the other.
When I was in college, I lived in a duplex that was 2 stories with one apartment on the ground floor and one on the second floor but often they are single story side-by-side.
Some buyers like the … (2 comments)
