    "The closeness to the Foothills of the North LA area, especially the feeling of being close to a lot of great options while being in a quiet secluded area surrounded by mountains. Feels separate, but a part of all the SoCal area has to offer. "

    "It’s a great place to live and raise a family. The nature and trees - close proximity to Glendale and Pasadena, great schools and community have been a real treat. We had come from Hollywood area and feel that we are the perfect distance now from the city while still being able to access what we need. "

    "Fairly decent schools, although bullying is still a problem. Not impressed with the special needs educators up here at all. They just like to babysit your kids, not actually help them learn. I had to remove my son (high-functioning autism) from their school district in 9th grade just to make sure he got his diploma. But if your kid is popular, plays sports, or is into drama, the schools are great for those kinds of kids. "
