There are always Lyfts and Ubers trolling for the times that public transit can't fill. Because of our location to center city the cost is usually reasonable."

    "We have excellent restaurants, movie theaters and our community a Theater the Ash center which is exceptional. We have several community organizations, supermarkets, pubs. We are the center of the universe 20 minutes to center city and 30 minutes to any suburb. My neighbors are my extended family. We chat online or we see each other when gardening or walking our dogs or invited for BBQ at each other’s home in the summertime. We watch each other’s home when one of us is away, and help each other whenever a hand is needed. I’ve been here 40 years and most of my neighbors have been here over 30. That’s what makes a real community"
