    "Great place to live, I would recommend doing some research and driving around to find the best area suitable for kids. But all in all it’s a great town with close proximity to the beaches and plenty to do. "

  • Stuart Whitcomb
    "There are many outdoor opportunities nearby, like short hikes; activities through our beautiful library and in the adjoining park; and of course the ocean is a short drive from downtown. For older children there are many summer job opportunities nearby, and the downtown is safe and offers a few good options for window shopping and coffee drinks."
