    "Lake in the Hills is a great neighborhood for raising kids and building a family. It’s safe, peaceful, and full of friendly neighbors who look out for one another. There are plenty of parks, playgrounds, and family-friendly activities throughout the year. The schools are solid, and it feels like a true community where kids can ride their bikes, play outside, and grow up with great memories. "

    "The school district is amazing, some neighborhoods are older generation though, not many kids around. Some neighborhoods feel they’re richer than others. Good shopping but route 47 as well as Randall road get contested. I love it here, just being real"

    "Not sure. I’m not a dog owner. I see many residents walking dogs, or having dogs in their yards. Not all neighbors have sidewalks. And most roads are narrow, only allowing 1 car to drive on, up and down steep hills. "
