    "My personal neighborhood is full of a wide range of ages from older couples to young families. We come together several times a year for block parties, etc and are there for each other when a need arises. I feel very safe both in my neighborhood as well as the city itself. The schools have high academic standards and we moved here because there was only one high school which brings about a more community feel. "

    "There are not sidewalks in many residential areas. This leaves you the option to walk in grassy areas and risk falling or twisting your ankle, or walking in the streets with many cars parked along them. Physically not safe for dog walking, exercising, or kids. "
