    "I moved here with my kids from South Florida. I am a single mom and the community is very family friendly. Everyone stays to themselves and not really into what neighbors are doing. I have not heard any loud noises, parties or chaos in the neighborhood. I sometimes allow my dog off of the leash while in the front yard. Mindanao is a busy road and some speeders should be flagged down."

    "I live on the cul-de-sac on Alden Rd. What drew me to rent here was the amount of families with young children playing outside. My only complaint is that a lot of kids run around unsupervised, my Christmas decorations were broken and messed with daily. Many times the kids leave bikes in other peoples driveways and roads. It can also be very loud at times with kids running around yelling and screaming. What drew me to rent here may end up being the reason I move from here."

    "There are a lot of young families with kids. Kids run around unsupervised often and play outside at all hours. Can’t leave anything out front otherwise children come along and touch everything and break belongings that don’t belong to them. Very few parents supervise their children unfortunately."
