    "We live here for part of the year and will be moving here full time in the next 2 years. The area is well maintained by property owners. Walkability to restaurants, shopping and entertainment is the best we have found. We seldom need to leave the island for anything and when we do, we seldom have to drive more than 5-6 miles."
