My back yard backs up to a main road. It's two lanes and 35 mph speed limit. There is a fence. Well, it's like this.
Main Road
Grass
Sidewalk
Grass
Fence
Back Yard
House
Front Yard/Driveway
Side Street
Pluses, close to main road...easy access, easy to locate house, bus stop (school and city) are close.
Minuses, some noise, need to shovel back sidewalk, need to mow yard beyond the fence.
I would buy another house close to a main road because I love the convenience...just depends on what you want. There is a buyer for every house. Keep yours in pristine condition and you won't have to worry about a buyer.
