quote:I agree with you, there has been a change in the sub-culture and it may be related to accessibility. Some folks would never have been tempted to purchase lots in HA if there wasnt pavement in front of or close to their lot. Then there are folks like myself who purposely stayed away from pavement. Then there are some who should have bought on pavement but didnt yet have expectations of how they want improvements and deserve wonderful roads. And of course there are the lotowners who enjoy pavement access and as has been pointed out, they settle in on 1, 8 and 9. However, many folks of all the different "road sub-cultures" have the Acres quintessential "go-it-alone & do-it-yourself" attitude. So as we can see, the subcultures have subcultures!!

Obviously, these more accessible parts of the subdivision attract a different kind of person than the wild and woolly areas. I think that may be an issue for some residents--it's changed the flavor of the acres.
So I don't think the paving of Rd 8 makes a physical division between above and below it, I think it contributes to a division in the Acres sub-culture. People on pavement vs people off-pavement and proud of it.
