    "loads of kids and adult social events. Halloween parade. Easter egg hunts. Adult progressive dinners. Parties at the community salt water pool. All the kids playing in the communal play fields, alleys, and cul-de-sacs. The whole neighborhood is a playground! "

  • Nakia A.
    "Great green spaces. The older houses have better space between them. People are buying these older homes on large lots and building super large houses which eat up the yard space and make the houses very close together. If you have kids the will have to play in the house, or the front yard nearer the street or you will have to take them to the park which is not very far. If you tear down and rebuild pick a house that will fit on your lot and still allow enough space that you can’t borrow sugar from your neighbor just by reaching out the window. "
