    "Other than the occasional item stolen from an unlocked car, this is a pretty safe, low crime area. Neighbors don't go out of their way to talk to each other, but I also haven't noticed any unpleasantness in the 5 years I've been here. It's been a good place to live. "
  • Megan L.
    "People walk their dogs all the time and there are big, fenced yards. But there are also plenty of dogs running loose that can create a hazard. "
  • Sissy122795
    "I think they would love it it’s quite the only thing is we live next to a nursing home and a train track and I feel some people wouldn’t like those things but other than that I think everyone would love it "
