    "It's quiet. A few kids, but not to many. The green is green here. There's no sidewalks, however we share the road. The neighborhood is not to far from the city. About 2mins away from the city, and 5mins from the hwy. Many shopping center, grocery store, gas stations, liquor store, convenient store, ect. There's a gym in one of the shopping centers. It's an awesome place to raise a family/commute to where ever. "

    "I have lived in Edgemoor Terrace for 2 years, and I just love it. When we decided to purchase our home here, we were not familiar with the area. There is a pretty rough neighborhood behind ours and sometimes kids from there or from the city come into our neighborhood to commit petty crimes like stealing bikes - but generally the neighborhood is quite quiet and friendly. There are lots of people out walking their dogs and kids when it's warm outside - even though there are no sidewalks, it is safe. Car traffic on my street (North Stuyvesant) is very rare - just people who live here drive past my house. I feel very safe here. Full disclosure: We do occasionally hear gunshots coming from the neighborhood behind us, but I think that's pretty common when you live very near an urban area. You can't beat the proximity to 495, 95, Philadelphia, North Wilmington, and Glenn Mills/West Chester, PA areas. I am literally 10-20 minutes from EVERYTHING in this neighborhood - it is so wonderful! I just became actively involved in the Edgemoor Terrace Civic Association (edgemoorterrace.com), and there are a lot of great people, events, and things going on in the neighborhood like picnics, holiday parades and parties, pot lucks, and happy hours. It is truly a wonderful place to live. :)"

    "I can't say enough about how nice the people are in this area. You can walk everywhere, there are cute shops and restaurants right in Bellefonte on Brandywine, and Ginger's is one of the best bakeries around. People keep up their homes nicely, the sidewalks make it safe for our kids to ride bikes or walk, and the whole neighborhood gets together and does fun things. Don't miss the Art festival in June! Local arts and crafts, live music and food, and the St. Helena's Church Festival is one of our favorites every year. Just a great place to live in Delaware. "
