    "I am 83 years old and have lived in many states and owned 4 homes, 13 years ago I bought in Hockessin, DE . This is the very best of all, my neighbors are by far above and beyond what l could ever expect from them. All are much younger with children and have busy lives, but always are looking out for us. Living here is like living in a world that I never knew existed."
