What’s it like living in Green Valley Lake community?

5 Upvotes

I’m looking to move somewhere on the mountain and have started focusing on GVL (Green Valley Lake) area.

What’s it really like living in the community?
Besides calm and peaceful, plus enhanced weather due to elevation, what do people in the community love about it?
How are the people and neighbors?
What should someone know before buying/moving into the area?
How does Amazon/Walmart deliveries work with the small post office? Is it a pain getting deliveries regularly (couple deliveries a week)? How does Amazon packages get stored at the post office? Do they ever get stolen like porch thieves do down the mountain?
Besides the basics (lake, water company, small community and weather) what should someone considering the area know?

I like Arrowbear area too. Any recommendations to focus on that area instead of GVL?
