    "Its safe and conveniently close to downtown. Some places offer more privacy others not so much. But its a great place to start moving out from parents houses to start ur own family if your financially good or bad its affordable depends on where but overall its a good area"

    "Playgrounds at the elementary schools are available to the public after school lets out, Manjare's Bistro (West Rock Ave) is a great place to take kids for breakfast or lunch. Trick-or-treating is so great in the neighborhood that the neighborhood is a bit of a victim of it's own success, that people make it a destination neighborhood for Halloween. "
