    "My personal neighborhood is full of a wide range of ages from older couples to young families. We come together several times a year for block parties, etc and are there for each other when a need arises. I feel very safe both in my neighborhood as well as the city itself. The schools have high academic standards and we moved here because there was only one high school which brings about a more community feel. "
