I strongly agree. When we bought this house, decades ago, our choice was heavily influenced by the ability to ride pretty pleasantly north to get to work, or ride south and soon get to fairly low traffic country roads. And as I've mentioned before, north tends to be flat once past the river valley, south gets quite hilly after maybe ten miles, because that's where the glaciers stopped.
Since our move here, the McMansion suburbs have popped up in a lot of the former cornfields, adding traffic to formerly quieter roads. But it's still a great place for riding.
