    "I haven't lived here long but the neighbors seem great and it's always felt safe untill about a week ago when out car was broken into. we now have a camera and no one else seems to have any issues. It feels like an isolated inciedent so I would still recommend!"
  • Hazel
    "There is only the Dial a Ride! No Uber, I think Lyft may come from another town for a fee. My commute is fine as I have a car. However if I were to have transportation problems, I would be in trouble. There is nothing from Niles to other towns. If there were, the prices would be more than a person could pay. "
  • Stephanie B.
    "Personally I like to take my dogs to the park, unfortunately I have to do a walk around before bringing them out to make sure there is nothing left on the ground the could Injure them. "

There is also one with a dirt bike track in their back and side yard that comes up on the side walk. I would be worried walking or riding bikes on the sidewalk in fear of being creamed by a dirt bike."

  • Kelley K.
    "movies, apple festivals, ice festival, small community, animals, fairs, horses. nice people that like to smile at others and enjoy good company. bonfires that are fun during the fall time. "
  • urbanite
    "This is the best area to live in Niles. This region is a little peninsula below the St. Joseph river, and since there is no through traffic, there is a lot of privacy. It is close to the bypass in terms of access, but far enough so that you don't hear road noise. It's one of the few areas where the speed limits are low, and most people don't speed. That makes the area very walkable, which was essential to us in terms of having a safe, comfortable place to walk with little kids. Most areas around SW Michigan don't have that. The Morris Farm is beautiful to have right nearby, as is their cute little wedding chapel. There are all sorts of homes here, from contemporary subdivisions to larger lots with older homes. Commuting-wise we do work in both St. Joseph and South Bend/Mishawaka, the latter being closer and very convenient to access. So we have privacy, beautiful countryside, the enjoyment of good neighbors, but convenience to local shopping, groceries, etc. This is the place I recommend for people who work in South Bend but don't want to live right in the heart of it all."
  • littlecl
    "This is an upscale gated community. Some homes on a small lake, others backing up to magnificent woods. Generous lots. Privacy is respected and valued. Association maintains standards. "
  • Teri j. J.
    "This is such a great area; perfect walking distance to schools, stores, restaurants, and parks. Friendly neighborhood and very clean. "
