    "Safe for kids to play outside! There’s a lot of kids for them to play with as well! There aren’t very many street lights sadly, so you probably shouldn’t let them out past dark (that’s just my opinion) but overall the kids seem to be nice and welcoming! I’m sure they would love a new friend or two! This is a good neighborhood and it’s very quiet!"
