    "We live on a private street. We have the school bus from Coles Elementary make several stops to pick up children from K-4 on our block. Families normally go for walks on our block. The block and neighborhood are one of the best in Scotch Plains. The street is tree-lined and scenic. We love it here! "

    "They’d love it because there’s plenty of grass and parks and places to walk your dog. The town is very proportional. You have your shopping n business areas and then you have the more quite residential area. Either way the areas are very pet friendly. Pet stores and hospital conveniently located as well. "
