    What is the name. The problem with most Airparks is they tend to build or want you to build McMansions. I want a 2200 to 2500 square foot home, I don't want or need more than that.

    I have pretty much lived all over the world,no matter where you go there are very few places with in my budget/grasp that have the best seasons all year round, so its either killer hot in the summer and doable from sept to june or its awesome from april to November and freeze yer arse off winters, further west in texas there are water rights to deal with..I don't want to be on a meter where you cant take a shower but once a week because of drout,,and I don't want to be on town water at all, or town sewer..yes there is cost of a well and septic system but its a part of the property and I don't have to worry about a 9 year old sitting in the shower for 40 minutes running the water I guess its up to what your willing to put up with,
    my goal in this endeavor, cost efficient home town feeling flying community that can be realized without all the excessive rules , sure there will have to be some..but as minimal as possible
    it can be done..
    Im hoping it does not turn into a clicky Im better then you because...... airpark..relaxed demeanor is the goal..be yourself relaxed,,not I better act this way because of so n so,,

    Here is the one I was talking about...

    From Canyon Lake Airpark south of San Marcos to Silver Wings Airpark near Fredericksburg there are a good range of Airparks NW of San Antonio to West of Austin.

    Another good resource ---> http://www.thirtythousandfeet.com/resident.htm

    I have been to many of these Airparks west and south west of Austin and I have found them all to be very laid back with friendly property owners.

    Here is more details on Silver Wings ---> http://www.silverwingsfly.com/

    If you really love water here you go ---> http://canyonlakeairport.net/
