    "Washington Heights is a gem in this city. If you want a mix of suburb feel yet city feel then this is the neighborhood for it. It’s diverse and quiet. We enjoy the music concert series in the summer and can’t wait for upcoming improvements to the playgrounds. A lot of parents send their kids to highland community school so I’ve met neighbors from school events as well"

I enjoy the diversity and I have learned to quite a few neighbors through my daughters school and attending the concert series in the summer.

    "The neighbors are really nice! Once you open up a little bit to each other, you gain this trust. And they look out for you and yours when need be. I am very appreciative of my neighbors. Tho it seems like gossip and “nosy”, they inform us of suspicious activities. Little things like that do mean a lot to us since these neighborhoods are getting targeted. "

    "This is a marvelous area to live in. Friendly active neighborhood with a great association (voluntary membership). Association has set 9 areas of neighborhood to involve in activities - have block watches, and other activities, and to track issues, with representatives from each on the board as well as many subcommittees. There is a strong Green / Sustainability conciousness. Currently working on a Solar Initiative to add Solar Power to homes in the area at a discount. Walkability and Public Transit are good. Many nice shops, restaurants, theater, and entertainment choices in area as well as great parks and activities. Great for walkers and bikers with pathways close by. Safe street parking, block watch, quick access to downtown by city street or via 41 hwy spur. Centrally located to all the city has to offer!"
