    Forest Glade area is very nice! As for the job market, it depends what field you are looking for jobs in. I have to ask, why Windsor?

    Belle River is just outside of Windsor but its a great area to raise a family, and you get more land for the price thank in Windsor.

    Jobs are not easy to find in Windsor. Stay away from the west end and the downtown area and you will be fine. LaSalle is a good alternative too. You can find a modest home in South Windsor for around $160000 and the schools are the best there.

    Have you checked out the mls listings? Find something in your price range, and it will tell you what schools are nearby. Then come back and ask those of us that live here what we think of the area.

    My friend is a realtor and is AWESOME to deal with. His name is Dan Gemus and you can check out his website here: http://www.dangemus.com/ He is honest and very helpful. We bought our home within a week of looking with him. If you tell him exactly what you need/want - he'll find it for you.

    To be honest, jobs are very hard to come by in this area but it depends on your field. We are obviously manufacturing heavy so I find there are more jobs in that area.
