    "Moved from a large state and big city to live in a family oriented down to earth southern town....Florence. I love living here. Houses are reasonably priced, property taxes are better than most cities, schools are good, less traffic, lots of history, beautiful scenery and parks. Florence doesn't offer everything the big cities do. But one can make a day or weekend get away to places like Huntsville, Birmingham, Nashville and many other heavily populated areas. I find living here a lot more relaxing and less stressful. "

    "This neighborhood is amazing! I love it. this is a great neighborhood for children.. this is also good for pets and runners. there are a lot of kids in this neighborhood. There is also a neighborhood pool and park. this neighborhood is older so some of the houses won't be updated that are for sale. most of the houses seem to be updated well! The back yards are big. But the thing I love most about this neighborhood ids that there are kids everywhere. I come from a small town but this school system is great i like it a lot. This neighborhood has charm.. there are tons of trees and plant life. If I could use one word for this neighborhood it would be amazing."
