"I especially love how we have our own farmers market and how the bus station is easily accessible for all ages for transportation. I have amazing friendly neighbors who come together but my one concern is the break ins we’ve had and the concern about loosing mail and packages. There has been minor damage done to my vehicles over the past 5 years but it would be nice not to worry! "
