    "I have lived in the area for 5 years and I love that literally EVERYTHIMG is a short walk or drive away. It has warm small town feel with the benifit of all of the larger town and city stores, restaurants and entertainment. Great place to retire or raise a family and the cost of living is far less compared to other areas. "

    " I've lived in the area most of my life, hope to retire to Peru. I only wish the city fathers would take pedestrians and bicycles into account. Not many sidewalks, NO bike paths, and pets are not allowed in parks, except for the Dog Park, which is just a small fenced in area. If you want to walk to the mall or shopping area, you are putting your life in the hands of hurried drivers. It is nearly impossible to cross Rt. 251. On the good side, you could live your entire life here and never have to leave town. It really is a full service community, you just have to use your car to get around."
