    "Just like any area there are some here that need to be more cautious. Since you have a huge military presence active and retired vets, think that is why people have a lot in common, sense of community and feel safe. Small town feel with good neighborhoods and church presence with activities. "

    "Fred Gannon Rocky Bayou State Park is a great place to walk your best furry friend with three safe nature trails to choose from and only require a 6 foot leash. Free pickup bags readily available at the trail heads, and if you ask at the Ranger station you will even get rewarded with a free treat for your pet. Just a small supportive entrance fee, and annual passes are available should you wish to make it a daily habit, as many do. "

    "A lovely place to live. I have never felt unsafe, by any means, granted I am very close to a school. I’ve never lived somewhere where the neighbors actually know each other, hang out, and watch each other’s back. Kids are always playing and walking to school together, a lovely river with a well maintained boardwalk within walking distance. Some noise from the super-cool planes that frequently pass right overhead, but other than that, 5 stars for the neighborhood by Edge Elementary. "
