    "The commute is about 20 minutes to Springfield. But it can take 20 minutes to drive from one side of Springfield to the other with traffic, so commuting to work is not excessive especially since you can use the interstate for 3/4 of the commute. "

    "Cars move fast on Kennedy Rd no sidewalks after the anchor house on Huntington Drive or Kennedy Rd. I never felt safe walking the dogs."

    "Live here. Auburn is a nice town. What it doesn't have is easily reached within 15 minutes."
