    "There are many families around here and a reasonable number of parks to amuse the young ones. Park maintenance is pretty awesome with only a scattered couple being in less than desirable locations. The sense of community is dependent on when and how often one chooses to engage with their neighbor but I’ve never met an unfriendly one. Animals are loved, but cats seem a little pervasive with fewer stray dogs. The individuals that do have dogs are rather lax with leashing policies and picking up their dogs poop though- likely due to the fact that no neighbor complains at seeing an off leash dog in the neighborhood. Otherwise it’s a great place to live. "
