    "Not kept up typically, sidewalks need tending to because they are basically washed away, the roads have massive pot holes and property is sky high because people think only military live here. Some of these house you can’t even live in and they are marked at 40,000. "

  • Satari G.
    "I have lived in this community for almost 2 years. Over here in Sycamore Point my neighbors come and go due to PCSing and even moving on base but it stays consistent. I haven’t had any complaints about my neighbors and vise versa. They have a lawn crew who comes about every 2 weeks or so and does and excellent job. Just move your plants and other items if you are someone who loves to garden because they sometimes get very close to the flowers. Other than that the kids play at the pool and parks and overall we have friendly neighbors."
