    "This neighborhood is unique in that it is near a church and an industrial park area. The area does not feel neighborly. "
  • bulldog52
    "Living right next to the schools offers access to the track for walking, the playground and basketball courts behind the Junior High, plenty of parking, and less than a minute of drive time to most shopping and eating in town. Movie theater is just down the street as well. There are plenty of sidewalks and there are always people out working out or walking dogs. Traffic can only get a little crazy right before and after school. The rest of the time it is pretty quiet, especially in the summer."
