    "We’ve lived here for 10+ years, son graduated, schools are excellent. Neighbors are friendly, helpful, but also private.The yards are all 1/2 acre+ but open, the kids cut through w/o an issue to take a short cut. Our particular streets (2) only have 10 houses so we drive every where, like being in the country kinda right in the city. Police response is within 11/2-2 minutes very professional and efficient no crime. I walk my dogs (poodles) at all times of the night. The convenience to highways is great. Just a nice, quiet, convenient place to safely raise your family and live yourself. "

    "Traffic has gotten very difficult. Two lane access does not work anymore, but there is nowhere to go to upgrade. POTHOLES will break suspension, Long Lake East of Woodward anyway..and most shortcuts To get to Telegraph takes easily 25 minutes, Square Lake between Woodward and Telegraph is ridiculous any weekday after 2pm"
