I actually live in Harveston. Yes, you are right it was difficult for my wife and I to get over the size of the yards. We are both around 30 and are about to start having kids, but we justified the lack of yard space, because of the large amounts of common space where the kids can play. I also, grew up on 3 acres and want nothing to do with that much yard work. I can mow, edge, and trim my entire yard in about 30 minutes. Plus, it was the only neighborhood in Baton Rouge that was convenient for both of our work commutes and were we could build a house we wanted within our budget.

Yeah, it just depends on the preference. As long as there was some form of playground/park area nearby, then I could make it work. My current yard isn't big by any stretch (maybe 1/3 acre), but I like having the area for exercise and kids to play.
I grew up on about an acre and loved it. But yes, that yard work is a beast in the dog days of summer
The houses in there are beautiful - I like the custom feel. Maybe when we're in our 30s we can afford $175/sqft - that area would be near the top of the list for work commute
