      "Safe community and great school district for kids …lots of activities nearby. Short drive to the city too. "
    • Pantherfanalex
      "I have lived in Locust Town Center for 2 years, and love it. All of the people I have met are friendly, and there is a ton of outdoor space. More and more sidewalks all the time (as they are still building.) And I can't keep up with all of the new businesses and amenities that Locust is adding."
    • Mj
      "Nowhere to walk dogs. Very few sidewalks, walking paths, nature trails or parks. It is not much of an outdoorsy type of community. Everyone seems to huddle inside vacuum sealed from nature with their AC going full blast "
    • Mary S.
      "I’ve lived here 12 years and love it. The privacy of the Forrest with the convenience of being very close to town with restaurants, shopping, a college and medical facilities.,this area has it all. "
