    "The houses are right on top of each other. So if you have a noisy dog it’s very noticeable. And a lot of people leave their cats to roam free. Good sized back yards. "

    "You have to walk or drive everywhere, public transportation is minimal...most industries have left the area, there are a few good jobs but most people commute 2 hours away to Chicago for work and live here due to it being cheaper. The real estate prices are driven by this in most cases. It's a great place for the elderly as there isn't much to do here."
