"It’s very safe in this area. Not a lot of crime except for occasionally kids coming in from highways and just stealing cars. Take your keys inside lock your cars and everything will be in tact. My neighborhood near the tree farm past silvermans farm is extremely safe. Expensive to live here but definitely worth it if you’re looking for something safe and not a lot of noise ."
