    "Best part of the city is the north valley and east side, community is tighter and usually always giving a helping hand to one another. I was born and raised here and I would live here for the rest of my life if I could. Maybe only Parking could improve however. Maybe fireworks could decrease too. Other than that it’s the most friendliest area of the city and it’s multicultural and diverse. My goal is to have a family and raise all my children here in this part of the city. Parents are always with their children and parents trust the neighbors in my part of the community (Plata Arroyo)."
