We live in a golf club community now but it was relatively cheap to join and it's not a full fledged country club so no food minimums and the dues are relatively low. We don't have a problem paying monthly dues but do have a problem paying a huge initiation fee. You have a point about the neighborhoods that require you to join for golf so that's something to consider.

I have seen that cost comparison on that realty site and it helps but is mainly Jupiter area clubs, not Boca or Wellington. I am also having a hard time finding a site where I can search by high school. I had a realtor send me a community in Wellington that is new construction but the schools were bad so I would really like to be able to search by school to help me figure out where these neighborhoods all fall in line.

I know the Palm Beach County website allows you to put in address but that's a pain. Thanks again for your feedback. I can't believe how much more the homes cost for so much less house compared to Atlanta. We will have to significantly downsize for more money!
You have probably already moved to South Florida but we are still in Atlanta & were looking for something similar to your home search. We ended up buying a smaller house in Jonathan's Landing; very nice community & nice club with amenities. Country club membership is not mandatory & much less expensive than what we saw in PBG & West Palm Beach. We looked at Ibis, Bay Hill Estates, Ballenisles, PGA National, all the Frenchman's properties, Mirasol, Mirabella, San Michele, etc. etc. etc. We were sick of looking when a Zillow alert notified us of a new listing in JL. We jumped on it & although we are a year away from retirement & full-time Florida residency we are happy to have bought now. Good luck!

We also just purchased in Jupiter at Egret Landing. We liked everything about that community. We are not ready to retire but wanted to have a plan and enjoy it in the meanwhile. We are from NY and love the area and people.

Thank you all for your helpful information in helping make our decision.
