    "I have lived in this neighborhood 11 1/2 years, my neighbors are friendly, kind and helpful when needed. There aren’t too many children seen outside often. Most neighbors take care of their yards, it’s a small community, great family community, I’ve never had anything stolen out of my yard, haven’t heard of any home break in’s. I just needed more space since adopting."

    "Do not believe the hype that this is the 3rd safest city in EBR. This area is horrible all around. Baker continually declines year after year due to bad leadership. We are so glad to be out this area. Rude customer everywhere you go, trash everywhere, blight, and terrible schools! "
