  • Raigendaveforevs
    "its really quiet most of the time other than that its just a neighborhood. real nice people when they're not being so nosy"
  • Aandrews129
    "The neighborhood is a quiet, family oriented area. It is close to everything, and far enough from the main roads to be safe to walk, bike, and play without worrying too much about traffic."
  • lm68
    "I have lived here most of my life. It's a wonderful place to raise a family. Small town friendliness and safety. There are a lot of outdoor recreational things to do. There are also lots of local shops and boutiques available for shopping, and there are a few "hobby" type clubs/groups to join. My husband has worked at a local plant for many years, they pay 2-3 times min wage. "
  • Elan20005
    "Ok area for retirees although not much to do for those either, NO jobs and those that are here are minuim wage. NO activities for kids/teens. No malls, one old movie theater that is terrible. "
