    "I'm just visiting on vacation .We've been using lift & they hsve been amazing. Very friendly & informative "

    "Most dog-friendly neighborhood i’ve ever lived in! It’s really the only way to meet neighbors, which is a little sad; after my dog died, i lost a lot of friends. But GREAT neighborhood!!!"
  • Eduardo V. M.
    "Lived here for 2 years, great neighborhood. It’s close to many places I frequent and the commute to work is minimal "
  • Jill R.
    "No community events held that I know of, or have been invited or participated in. Most neighbors keep to themselves, but have recently acquired a new one which is rude and yells at my house from their backyard when they want quiet, no matter the time. Also, close to speedway, where I reside, the ramen restaurant and it's customers have been an absolute nightmare. "
  • Jill R.
    "only problem is the ragin ramen which is now using all the parking for blocks and often blocks me in or causes traffic hold ups "
  • Wendy H.
