    "It's quiet despite being in the middle of everything. Everyone knows everyone but no one is nosy. They're not especially friendly either. It's not a very outgoing community. Though the people are nice. When my dog escapes the yard he is promptly returned. It is also a very diverse neighborhood."

    "Depending on the time of day will determine how much traffic you hit. Stay on the same street as a school and the traffic gets backed up trying to get to the drive way in the afternoons sometimes but other than that not bad."

    "Area is pretty safe for older kids to play. Lots of kids on bikes, fishing at the pier, playing ball at Phoebus Little League and kid friendly restaurants. The local cider and brewery nearby are great for kids and the YCMA and Ft. Monroe Community Center are nearby for kids activities and camps. St. Mary’s Catholic School is here and a great school for kids Pre-K thru 8th grade. "
