    "I have lived in the neighborhood since 2004. Neighbors are friendly. People walk their dogs, ride their bikes & jog/run & walk every day. Everyone is quite friendly. It is a quaint town. We have lots of festivals & community events. Ponchatoula has one of the best local grocery stores. We have several cafes, restaurants, coffee shops, antique stores, & an electric train store. There is a country market, housed in the original train depot, that has unique handmade crafts. There are sidewalks on the Main Street all the way downtown. We have a school building that houses artifacts of the history of the area. There is a locomotive in the center of town. It reminds us of how important the train helped the Strawberry farmers get the delicious produce to the rest of the countries. "
