    "I have lived in Canton, MI since 1995. The community is rated as one of the safest in Michigan. The Summit on the Park is an awesome place to live with a large community center, ponds, walking trails, a golf coarse running through the subdivision and beautiful homes. Cherry Hill Village is a new development that also attracts many people. Sunflower subdivision has two pools, two club houses, tennis courts and many large park areas with walking paths that is an affordable area within Canton. Canton also has several long biking trails.
