    "I see people using the bus stop down the street where I live. Easy access. My neighbors mind there own business, yards are clean, inside castle garden it feels safe to walk, great areas for the kids to play. There’s a community pool and it has a fence with a lock so the kids can’t get in unless they have supervision."

    "People walk their dogs and just leave their poop so if you don’t like picking up your dogs poop then this is a perfect place for you. No one says anything. Most people won’t let you pet their dog either. Most dogs are for protecting so that’s why they won’t pet them. "

    "I don’t drive but it’s way better the the Bay Area or Fresno or Modesto or even Turlock. 99 is scary. There’s a lot of homeless people here now and A LOT of druggies/ mentally ill. When I first moved here they were not aloud to live on the streets and it was WAY nicer. Only person you saw on the side walk was a nice man with a smile sign. Now you have to hide everything and make sure you’ve locked everything up super good can’t open your blinds or leave your mail longer then an hour or leave anything visible in your car. It’s better then a big city but the police won’t do anything unless they feel like it. "

    "Great place to live! There aren’t many places like Atwater that have the same sense of community and love. Like anywhere else there are bad areas and influences we would rather not have around. However the pros always outweigh the cons! In looking for a place to call home there is no where else in California I would rather see myself raising my family then in Atwater California."

    "I have lived in my current residence for about 5 years. The neighbors are good people and we all watch out for each other’s property’s and inform each other when we feel any suspicious activity is going on which is not often. I like our location because we are right down the street from the park and It’s nice to be able to walk. Pretty good neighborhood, just a very busy main street where most people drive too fast. "
