    "I’ve lived here for 16 years. We have amazing neighbors that watch out for each other. I love the small town where you know so many people. My only downfall is the school being so close to the dump and the smell of the dump."

    "I love the small town feel of Cortland, while being able to shop or go out to eat 5mins away in DeKalb or Sycamore. It’s the best of both worlds. Most importantly, neighbors look out for one another."
