    "I really enjoy living here. I walk my dog all over town every day. It's very safe and people are always very friendly to me. I enjoy the quiet street that I live on, and that my neighbors all take pride in their homes -- most if not all have manicured lawns and nice landscaping. I enjoy having the ability to walk to restaurants and the local bar for drinks on the patio. There's also chinese & pizza delivery, but not much shopping other than a grocery store and some pharmacies. Down the street is a great park, and there's always sports being played with families/friends cheering and supporting the teams. It really has a sense of community. Overall it has a nice, quiet neighborhood feel with many of the amenities of living in a more urban area."
