    "This area is a well maintained and family oriented neighborhood. A lot of them are long-term and life long residents. It is generally safe and you can walk outside at night without fear. Walking distance to Target, Lowe's, Marshalls, and ACME is huge. Parking is not great but you can park under the 95 lot if needed. "
