    "This area makes it easy to walk to the local library, new and exciting restaurants downtown, parks, local dog park and an arcade. "
  • Lexi V.
    "It was mostly quiet but I honestly did not spend too much time outside my own neighborhood growing up. The area by Washington middle school and San sucy was very nice and the people were nice. Nice nature trail near by and lots of activities for families. I do not currently live in the area any longer and have not for years but as I remembered it, it was lovely and you never had to worry about your kids playing outside since everyone was so friendly and knew each other. Overall the people in the San sucy area were what the neighborhood great. Looked out for each other and always looked out for each otherโ€™s pets when they ran from the house."
  • Alice M. D.
    "Gun shots... loud music... speeding cars going down the street... this place has it all... the homeless shelter is down the street, and they are always hanging around too. "
