    "Freeport is slowly becoming queens with illegal vehicles. such as unregistered/uninsured quads and dirt bikes, The “mile” has become a haven to tourists that completely disrespect residents and property. Academically the schools are great, but the students not so much. There’s a lot of great PRO things about freeport, but there’s also a LOT of CON’s"
