    "Close to all major highways. Congestion along 5th Street Highway with shopping malls and traffic. It stinks here because of the Mushroom growhouses all over the place. There are a lot of impoverished people in this area."
  • Chivvone
    "If you have no car do not move around here, it’s horrible. There is no stores near, you’ll be walking for at least 2 miles and it’s only a Turkey Hill which means it’s super expensive, so if your in foot that’s your only option. "
  • Taylor D.
    "We own a dog, too! There’s a great walking trail near by as well as a dog park within a 10 minute drive. "
  • Chivvone
    "Everything is far, there’s no public transportation and no sidewalks. It’s dark, bushy with no sidewalks. Very scary and creepy at night. "
  • Chivvone
    "There’s alot of kids and families and no one communicates with each other. Everyone stays to themselves, comes and go. "
  • Lnwhggj
    "I like the quietness of my neighborhood, it’s safe, clean, pretty houses. "
  • angelwgreywings7
    "Live in the area, the trucks are a sheer nightmare during the day, using the road as a raceway between Muhlenberg and Maidencreek/Fleetwood. I'd never live here again, it's ridiculous."
  • Jessica A.
    "This is a wonderful area to live quiet and secluded, but yet you are only 5 minutes to stores and everything else you would want to get to is about 10 minutes. Country living with the ammenities of a city within minutes! Great new schools, lots of parks, plenty of things to do in Berks County."
