Abergoat responds:

Excellent point, but was there anyone to raise Harry in what was left
of Godric's Hollow?  If the person that (hypothetically) moved Harry
was Dumbledore's Voldemort spy then he/she was too valuable to lose to
a nanny position. And Harry couldn't really grow up isolated from
everyone and be normal. Plus Godric's Hollow may only be one room at
this point.

Wow, that's an even better point...but I see TinyTonks's
argument, I don't think the prisoners are allowed visitors
under normal conditions. I believe Sirius says that Barty Sr
and his wife were only allowed in because Barty Jr was dying.

I buy that argument completely, along with Michelle's comment that
there was hope that Harry might find friendship in the Dursley
household. He didn't, but Dumbledore couldn't be certain the Dursley's
wouldn't rise to the occasion.
