    "It’s a very kid friendly neighborhood. There’s no such thing as a privacy fence. Those are frowned upon in this neighborhood. Neighbors are friendly and will wave or speak. Turning into more of a diverse neighborhood."

    "No Public Transportation here. All car dependent. nice, clean, maintained, could use more sidewalks for sure. and bike lanes are definitely needed, more entertainment options than just the bars and the only bowling alley in there are needed. "

    "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."
