Kalamazoo's Vine Neighborhood has been named to This Old House Magazine's "Best Places to Buy an Old House 2009: Editors' Picks".

According to This Old House Magazine, "Unique, tight-knit neighborhoods are precisely what we looked for in selecting the winners of our second annual Best Places to Buy an Old House contest—places that might not be on your radar but deserve to be. Like last year, we relied on our good friends at PreservationDirectory.com to help us contact thousands of neighborhood groups, real estate agents, and preservation societies to get their takes on the best places to track down, fix up, and fall head over heels for older homes.

These eight communities are the ones we consider the cream of the crop, the best of the best places to buy an old house."
