    "There’s a sense of community. Everyone that lives here has stayed here and their kids have started families here. There aren’t really any events for communities that are out together but it’s like everyone knows everyone. This writing of 100 words is kind of unnecessary. "

    "This area, is families that have lived here for many years. Everyone knows everyone around here. People are always walking around the neighborhood. It is a pretty safe area with nicely lit streets. The parking lot near us sometimes has young kids doing donuts which can be annoying. "
