    "Everyone loves our neighborhood! We have an organized neighborhood association and many friendly neighbors who host weekly get togethers in the summer. Many neighbors are active in the community and are long time residents. Caring neighbors, historic homes, and true friendliness make this the neighborhood many people aspire to move to.
