    "There needs to be a all weather trolley system as we have many senior citizens who would utilize a trolley system as well as college students to get to campus from their homes in older Murray areas. The biggest and most dangerous problem are trucking and cars speeding down 641 and past all the restaurants while residents walk to lunch, classes, work, or the park."

    "I grew up in Murray, KY. Where my friends’ parents’ and mine grew up together and, in some cases, our grandparents’ did as well. I always describe Murray as a tight knit “Norman Rockwell” type community. It’s rare that I walk into a store and do not know someone by name. Neighbors look out for neighbors, it’s extremely safe (I believe my parent started locking their doors 10-15 years ago and that was only at night. Kids can safely play outside without a worry. The university, Murray State University is an exceptional school with man award winning departments and athletics make the weekends a fun “community” feel, as we all tailgate before the game. I cannot think of a better place to grow up. I love it here. It’s just got that “something special” that’s indescribable. We are also 10-15 minutes from Kentucky Lake, where many people have boats and/or cabins. If you like a family feel community, where you would be welcomed with open arms.....Murray, Kentucky is waiting for you and your family."

This home is very nice and also has security system, remote entry garage, and new bathrooms, and 30 year Timberline dimensional roof 3 years ago and new gutters 3 years ago. A quality house with large living areas and fireplace, Florida room, and patio. Great place to live and very few in this price range in Murray, Ky. "
