    "I’ve lived here for two years, moved from North Jersey to have a better area to raise my children. It was ok at first, now it’s just mediocre but it’s not where I came from which is a plus. You need a car to get around definitely but there’s plenty of places to go and a lot of walking areas. The rent is so high around here if you were a renter tho. And there’s a lot of foreclosures happening."
