    "The downtown area is very bustling. Not recommended for raising a family . Try the Hill section, it has a better atmosphere "
  • Christopher M.
    "Fun downtown events for the family. Events in the parks for families and kids and even pets. That’s the only good part "
  • Madelena P.
    "I go to school here that’s about it. It’s popular for students. It doesn’t feel all that safe, but what makes it unique is the federal building that’s right next to the county court house "
