How many homes does a president need to retire to? George W. and Laura have bought a single-story, 8,500-square-foot, light-red brick house at 10141 Daria Place on 1.1 acres of land in Preston Hollow, North Dallas, the tony neighborhood he used to live in before becoming president. The adjacent house, at 10151 Daria Place, is under contract, and neighbors believe the Bushes will buy that property as well, reports the Dallas Morning News. A neighbor-to-be, Christine Tomasides, says the locals are friendly. "We will welcome everyone: lawyers, restaurant owners or leaders of the free world. Come on in," she said. And another neighbor, Douglas Fletcher, reports the cul-de-sac is home to screech owls, hawks, and the occasional coyote. And it is not just the presence of the hawks that will make Bush feel at home. As the Morning News reports, “After a jarring eight years in the White House that saw his popularity tumble to record lows, Mr. Bush can take comfort in knowing his new precinct is overwhelmingly Republican.”
