I know what you mean about my comment about Macon. I mean, the neighborhood I live in, while not overwhelmingly black, is certainly majority black, and it makes me really angry, the things that people say to me, assuming I will agree with them because I'm a white girl. And while I would certainly not care one way or the other for myself about the demographics of the neighborhood--I mean, I do live where I do--in this case, I don't think I'll be living here for the rest of my life, and I have to consider how the house will sell, five years or however far out.
I am not going to go so far to the practical that I buy a house I can't love. I really think that both these houses are entirely lovable, and so my heart will play in either.... Okay, if I set the practical/lovable to a percentage, I think Bachelor #1 would be 40%/60% and Bachelor #2 would be 60%-40%. So it's just a matter of letting my head or my heart rule, while knowing that at the same time the other will get some say as well.
I am new-ish to the US housing market too! I have the feeling that we will all be experts by the time this is over, if I don't learn to curb my enthusiasm.
