We have 2 RES turtles that live in a pond (baby pool made into a turtle pond) in our backyard. We enjoy them and they live a very long time if cared for properly. Relatively low maintenance as well.

depends on the species you are looking into, sadly many folks are unable to care for them properly. While some find there care easy, many people do not understand their care and size requirements.
It does depend on the species.
