    "I have lived here for 2 years. It is super quiet, neighbors are quiet, Most mind their own business and are respectful. It is beautiful in the fall spring and summer. I love being by the river and I sit there and eat pray just chill. Kids still ride their bikes go to the park and go for pizza. So think about that. People walk and run morning when it's dark noon and evening. It truly is frozen in time. I would love to recommend this area to you. "

    "it's not a bad neighborhood. lots of renter's. has some bad parts that bring it down in comparison to the neighborhoods that surround like Riverton and cinnaminson. I have rented two properties in this area. the area by the Delaware river is nice, and there is a good amount of shopping very close. good for renter's but I don't think I would love around here. houses to close and I jus want more space. lots of old houses too. this town is much better then when I rented in pennsauken."
