"Safe area, good schools, friendly people, and very nice place to live overall. The commute to Lansing is short but it is far enough away from danger that you feel safe all the time. I have never been worried about my safety. The roads are well maintained as well."

"Great neighborhoods, quiet and friendly with plenty of space to walk, with or without your pets, ride bikes, go to the park or beach on Lake Geneva, or stroll down town to a local shop or restaurant. Residents have the option of small town living, and are only minutes away from the larger, fast paced cities of the Greater Lansing Area. "

"Clark is a busy road and too dangerous without a fence for a child to be outside. Garage doesn't have a driveway to it. No sidewalk for walking/riding bikes. Great Schools and close to freeways to access shops and restaurants (entertainment). "
