    "Don’t love the area. I am here 4 years and only know a few of my neighbors and wish neighborhood was more friendly."
  • reetabeeta11
    "Love the area. Schools are great for gifted as well as special needs children. Lots of activities for children before, after and off school hours. Plenty of places to shop to meet all your needs. Close to public transportation lines (buses and trains), the beach, and parkways. Friendly people and neighbors. Excellent library system. Rentals can be a bit steep, but no slum landlords in town. Businesses are steadily prospering. No major disaster after Storm Sandy except for water view homes. Community is very supportive of businesses and neighbors. Would love to see stores open a little bit earlier and later than 9-5 for the working community. Overall, safe, clean, friendly."
  • Ursula B.
