What’s the difference between the exurbs and the suburbs?
When looking at a home, you might know immediately that you don’t want to live in the city. If that’s the case, you might want to gravitate toward the suburbs or exurbs.
Suburbs and exurbs came about due to a desire for people to have more space and privacy while maintaining proximity to the city. But what exactly defines these two types of communities?
Suburbs give you full access to everything you would find in the city, including restaurants, high-quality medical facilities, and entertainment. All these locations are within driving distance.
Exurbs tend to be more spread out and less walkable compared to suburbs and the city. You gain more usable land and have less crime and fewer neighbors. They’re an excellent option if you work from home or seek a second home since they’re more secluded.
If you’re in the market for a new home, whether it’s in the suburbs or exurbs, reach out to a real estate professional. They can help you find your next dream home.
