The neighborhood hood is safe for kids and adults, we have many neighbors that walk their dogs up and down the streets , so everyone drives carefully thru the neighborhood to avoid any accident from occurring.

    "Great schools. Sports are very popular. Band program is good. We are well patrolled by the police. Like every city, some neighborhoods are better kept than others. But police and other first responders are awesome. Great local shops, though they aren’t promoted well, you can find great unique clothing and gifts. But we have big box stores and a theater as well.

    "The amount of open land for pets to roam is what I believe someone would love. Houses aren’t cramped next to each other too closely. Lots are huge and you have parks where they can surely play. Pet owners pickup after their pets, too. It’s an awesome situation. "
