Villebois Article in Wilsonville Spokesman

Allow me to vent for just a minute.

I recently read an article written by a local journalist in Wilsonville, Ore..  It discussed a new builder, Polygon NW, showing interest in building  homes in Villebois.  I think that is great news!  What I do not care for in the article is how the author tries to portray Villebois as “the recently troubled master planned community”.  I guess that he is entitled to his opinion but I think that his opinion is no where near reality.  There is no doubt that permits are no where near where they were in 2005 but let’s put this picture into perspective.

Lets take a minute to recap 2009

60 homes were sold in Villebois

47 new homes sold

Villebois won 9 national awards through the National Association of Home Builder

4 Gold Awards

5 Silver Awards

Named Community of the Year (that is throughout the nation, also called the United States of America)

For a “troubled development” 2009  shaped up to be a pretty good year considering the circumstances.  Villebois was the top selling community for new homes in the Portland real estate market and was named the top community in the nation.

Yes, we are in the midst, if not close to the end, of the biggest economic turmoil that this great country has ever experienced.  Instead of playing on peoples fear why don’t journalists try to spread a little bit of good news when it happens or better yet try to find the good in a situation.  People like good news sometimes too.

Maybe that doesn’t sell newspapers.
