    "Auburn is a decent sized city, not too large and not too small. There are no gangs, graffiti, to worry about. Your kids feel safe riding bikes around town. Most home owners care for their properties. There are plenty of jobs, restaurants, stores to meet needs. There are several parks around the area and plenty of sports league options. "

    "The roads are cleared very early because they’re technically city streets. I live on Huron. Kids play. Nice neighbors, nice yards. The only problem is the people in the apartments speed down the road like crazy. It needs to be enforced"

    "No public transportation in Auburn area. You must have your own vehicle. The roads are well-maintained and street parking is abundant. Commute around NE Indiana area is easy. Traffic in Auburn is generally light, except Thursday-Saturday during "rush hours.""

    "Great neighbors who watch out for everyone. I lived there 19 years and wouldn't be moving except my new job is 2 hrs away (4 hour hrs round trip). Horse drawn hayrides, community band, downtown public art, several family owned restaurants (not chains or franchises). This town represents Hoosier Hospitality at its best!"

    "Good sidewalks and paved streets. Excellent city services: garbage, recycling, street cleaning, police patrolled. Normally, slow traffic due to short streets and cul de sacs. Dog owners are considerate of the neighborhood. Quiet and friendly. Homes generally well built and efficient."
