  • Angela L.
    "It’s a surprisingly quiet neighborhood. I feel very safe here despite the close proximity to Minneapolis. Lots of people always out walking on their own or walking dogs. Practically every type of store you might want to shop at is less than 15 minutes away. Also, the location is very centralized to surrounding communities. I like it here."
