    "Great safe family area and homes/yards aren’t on top of one another. Grew up here my entire life and now know my child’s safe to play outside too. A lot of deer that will sometimes get into the roads, but otherwise a beautiful spacious area that you don’t have to be concerned about overcrowded areas or being unsafe walking your dogs or letting your kids out to play. Neighbors are friendly and while spaced out pretty well still usually will know each other by name or wave as you go by etc. "

    "Quiet low traffic areas to walk your dog. Lots of dog owners in the area too. The downside is there are no sidewalks so your strolling in the street. "

    "The area seems to be nice when you drive by, but one will be surprised to find out that there isn't a safe place to walk with fear of getting hit by a car... Neighbors keep their dogs chained up all year round. People shoot guns at all hours of the night. There is a lot of traffic around Lake Silkworth making it an unsafe place to walk a dog if you have one. "

    "Typical suburban for the most part, with good schools. No "Main Street" atmosphere; instead lots of small shopping centers. Need a car to do anything."
