  • Amy d.
    "There is a dog park in my neighborhood, adjacent to the kids park and skate park. There are also plenty of sidewalks to safely walk your dog."
  • Aluxton
    "It is the best of all worlds. The traffic is comparatively light so it is easy to get around. I am close to major motorways with access to main city hubs, but at the same time I am within very close proximity of the beach, restaurants, shops and medical facilities. I can walk across the road to hairdressers, restaurants, and other service stores, and yet I can walk out in my back yard onto a large deck with a ravine. Everyone is friendly although gives you space and I feel very safe walking around. There is also an excellent school system around and one excellent University under 10 miles away. A great environment."
  • Cindy J.
    "I have moved here for a long term contracting job. I love the quaint neighborhood I am renting in and that there are many dog lovers here. I can also walk to Lake Michigan and Silver Beach. Love it her3!"
