Where should I live

I left my narcissistic ex 2 years ago. My daughter is 10 and we share custody (unofficially) 50/50 as per her wishes.
Shes had so much upheaval I let her choose her high school which is 10 mins from her dad but 30 mins from me. I live near my sister (both our parents are gone so we only have each other). I live in rented but am looking to buy now.
I would like to stay here near my sis and DD would like me to live here so she can live near her cousins.
But my worry is as she gets older will she want to go out with friends near her high school which is therefore near her dad and I’ll see her less which would kill me.
He is quite manipulative and she is starting to see it but she’s still quite young.
I should add I am willing to take her where ever she wants to go forever!
I’m just so worried if I buy an house over near my sister, I will see DD less?
Would love your advice or opinion please, as to where I should live

30 minutes is quite a commute everyday for school. How will she get there?

Depends a lot on prices in your area. Two miles down the road can add tens of thousands to a house price.

I would only need to take her half way on a morning and she can meet the school bus
house prices between areas are pretty similar
