What specifically would you like to know? Big jump from Metro at Michigan to Windermere. If you are going to Windermere soon you might want to consider buying or renting there now while there is a buyer's market.

well for one thing. The condos that you want to move into probably wont satisfy your rich taste. Windermere is home to all the rich snooty people. Those condos in conway probably consist of mostly middle class to lower class familys struggling to feed their familys. Crime is common in that area and just to let you know there is illegal street racing on SR436 at night too.
so just like terry said just move to windermere right away. There is no silver platters in the conway area.

Well, as has been stated, Conway is not Windemere, but it is not all a crime-ridden area, either. In the area where you are looking, Metro@Michigan Park, that is near Highway 436, and I believe you would be sorry you moved there for the reasons already stated. However, going further west, across Conway Road, there are beautiful homes surrounded by older trees, many lakes (Conway chain of lakes where some pretty expensive houses are located), A rated schools and beautiful developments. I've lived in that area for many years. I do agree, though, that Windemere and Celebration are quite a ways away from Conway, and if you are really looking to settle in those areas, I'd move there. Good luck in your search.

Default Moving to Conway

I think the Conway area, west of 436, is a decent area. It has some very nice older homes for a decent price. It's a very settled area with good schools as well. Windermere is too expensive for anyone but Magic players or celebrities. LOL

Good luck in your move.
