    "I’m from the North Shore all my life. It’s one of the safest places you could ever live, and one of the best to raise a family. Blessed to be from there."
  • Taylor G.
    "I’ve lived here for 1 year. The area is very affluent and can feel unwelcoming at times to those of us who aren’t as well off as the rest. The public areas and parks are very well taken care of and top notch. I wish there were more options for the younger crowd. There aren’t any bars other than one brewery and a local pub. I wouldn’t recommend the area for a young couple but if you want a calm place to live, this is a good area. "
