    "This town is a quiet community on the whole. I live near the Elms College which is a delightful neighborhood to walk around. I feel it is a safe place to raise children. This area has many of the older homes in Chicopee so it is an interesting neighborhood to look at. It has a municipal power company that gets power up and running after any weather related power issue. It also has reasonable rates. I believe you get a lot for your money with the real estate in this city."
