    "Very nice and easy lived in Clayton Delaware my whole life hoping to stay close and stay at my job or Hartly "
  • Meganchevy3
    "I’ve lived in the neighborhood for four years in November and like it. I don’t love it because it’s deed restricted in here and you can’t have a pool nor can you have a swing set for your children and it’s sad kids can’t go outside in the back yard and have fun anymore. But there are nice people that live in here. "

    "This neighborhood is mixed with families and empty nesters (youg retirees). Friendly, clean, upwardly mobile residents. Lots of teachers, police offficers, nurses."
