    "West Village is chock full of wonderful, diverse people. Everyone is very neighborly, and considerate of one and other. Our population ranges from school aged youth to retirees. We are able to walk to downtown Lansing; a pleasant walk through the Genessee neighborhood with all its equally historic homes and exciting renovations. "
