    "Rydal is a safe area with plenty of friendly neighbors that will say “hello” or stop to chat with you when you are outdoors jogging, walking the dogs or just working on your flower beds. It has hills, lots of green spaces and many beautiful stone houses. But not so many sidewalks. Still, quite walkable because it’s a quiet neighborhood. "
