@Happybritgirl: I see nobody has risen to the challenge. I don't live in Tavola, but I live in nearby RF, so I'll try to answer some of your questions. Haven't seen any crime figures for Tavola, but crime is very low in RF and in Woodbranch. I expect Tavola would be similar. Police services in Tavola are provided by the RF Police Force -- well-respected in the area. Electric service is provided by Entergy; you have no choice, but the rates are reasonable. Cable TV is provided by Suddenlink, and satellite from Dish and DirecTV are available. There may be other Internet/TV providers servicing Tavola. So far, traffic in/out of the community hasn't been a big problem. That may change as more and more homes are built in Tavola. I expect we'll be seeing traffic lights on RF Blvd at Winding Summit and Tavola Dr in the not-too-distant future.
