    "Never had any block parties or anything like that but that might just be a thing of the past. Every one of our neighbors gives that friendly wave whenever we see them. Each family/ residence keeps an eye out for each other and is cognizant of unusual or criminal activity. It all depends on each individual family around you on whether you’ll run into any issues. That is just on them as people. For the most part on our block, the noise and loud music is to a minimum. Everyone keeps their own cars in front of their own homes. Most of the homes and yards are well maintained. "

    "Freeport is slowly becoming queens with illegal vehicles. such as unregistered/uninsured quads and dirt bikes, The “mile” has become a haven to tourists that completely disrespect residents and property. Academically the schools are great, but the students not so much. There’s a lot of great PRO things about freeport, but there’s also a LOT of CON’s"

It’s a great place to get a nice seafood dinner, walk on the boardwalk or go clubbing with some friends. Also Freeport is home to many different churches for those who wish to express their religious or spiritual freedoms. "
