I'm considering installing a flag pole at the front of my property. I'm tossing around a couple of options, would like some input from those who have put one in.
Thinking about installing the flagpole where my mailbox currently is (red arrow) and replacing my mailbox over at the blue arrow. Probably would make these two areas small flower beds and replace the sprinkler in that area with a drip line. Other thought is just to install the flagpole right behind the mailbox and upgrade the mailbox at the red arrow and put one small flowerbed there. Final option may be to install the flagpole closer to the home, but I personally would rather have it near the street.
So my questions are:
Thanks for the input and open to other feedback.

So my questions are:
- Any recommendations for a flagpole? Lots of options, lots of cost range. I want a quality one that will last, ideally a lit telescoping.
- Any issues installing so close to the street?
- Anyone put one so close to a mailbox?
- Any recommendations for a height? Was considering 25'.
Thanks for the input and open to other feedback.
