    "Schools are good all walking distance from each other and surrounding neighborhoods. 2 grocery stores close. As of lately an overwhelming presence of police when they could be on the other side of town where it needed. Borderline harassment when daughter walks our dog and police drive by and blind her by shining white lights at her. Unacceptable."
  • Theresa Marie
    "My kids & I feel safe to walk at night. Never had problems with crime. Schools are very close to walk, stores not so much. Rent is very high for not very many features. Everywhere has a stove and Fridge."
  • Maria Lucas
