Frankly, a lot of people in our church didn't even know where the pastor lived or had certainly never been over there.
I guess I took that to Oklahoma with me....and it works just fine. The people I pastor are happy that i don't just show up...and they are just as happy that I get the same courtesy.
They know they are welcome to talk with me...but a phone call is expected and appreciated.

Some of the churches I've been in and around... the family is more like Royalty than just normal folks.. somewhat elevated from the fray if you will..
Truthfully I CAN"T stand that spirit...
but it is inbred in them..
