    "Some people are friendly or not friendly and beware of police and they like to be noisy around. Some houses are pretty to look at and some other are not so great. That is my opinion. Wethersfield is too close to city of Hartford. Fun places go shopping in Newington or Glastonbury. Food are pretty good thank you. "

    "Our neighborhood is fairly quiet and people generally keep to themselves, but people are friendly and at the corner is Leo’s, the liquor store, and D&D which are also nice to see neighbors and other locals. Friendly, quiet, reserved; that’s a good overview of being here. "

    "Folks on our street look out for each other without being intrusive. The children have lots of playmates all around - no need to schedule play dates - play is spontaneous and inclusive. We live in a walking neighborhood - parks, the cove, beautiful old houses, the center of the village are all within walking distance, yet it is quiet and safe on our street. "
