Clown Car: Creating a World - Reference

A tricky thing to create from imagination is a realistically proportioned suburb (specific example I know). However, for this piece I wanted the suburb to have that perfect Pixar, Illumination style. So where do I go first for this? Google! Whilst searching for American suburbs (they tend to be a bit more 'Hollywood' than what you find here in Britain) I came across a list of the 50 best suburbs to live in. The top being in a town called New Albany in Ohio - it was exactly what I was looking for. So off to Google Maps to have a little look. Here are the images I found:

Trees, big houses, large drives, nice pavements and grass! Perfection for my piece!
