    "Rydal is a safe area with plenty of friendly neighbors that will say “hello” or stop to chat with you when you are outdoors jogging, walking the dogs or just working on your flower beds. It has hills, lots of green spaces and many beautiful stone houses. But not so many sidewalks. Still, quite walkable because it’s a quiet neighborhood. "

    "Not much, it does have a lot of shops and food places nearby which is nice. I do often walk about at night and it doesn’t feel unsafe. There is a lot of traffic where I live which is annoying and some of my packages have been stolen which is also a downside "
