    "Family friendly, Shenandoah Subdivision is a great place to live. Within our subdivision there is a BREC Park, Shenandoah Elementary, Green Trails Subdivision, Southern Oaks Athletic Club with pools and tennis courts. Our subdivision is surrounded by many great sit down and fast food restaurants, grocery and drug stores, churches of many different denominations, movie theaters and automobile repair shops. St. George Fire Department is a mile away and they drive around Shenandoah Subdivision with Santa on the back of the fire engine and his helpers throwing candy. Shenandoah has the convenience of a big city with a small town feel. "
