    "None. The area is a little rundown, my area is nice but not in Comstock proper. The Comstock area itself is terribly out dated with few resources. "

    "This neighborhood is quintessential. Many families with school aged children and younger, varied home designs, spacious properties, and Rolling meadows is closed to through traffic allowing for pleasurable, undisrupted walks as well as safe streets for kids. Perfect for retirees, too. Gull Lake schools has top a top notch educational system as evidenced by academic performance indicators. Educational facilities are kept in great condition. Although property values are strong, the area boasts some of the area's lowest property tax rates. Bonds are reasonable and supported by the community, which has boosted educational opportunities for Gull Lake youth. With nearby public parks, trails, libraries, and shopping centers in a 10 minute radius, leisure options are plentiful. Easy access to highways, between BC and Kzoo, and not far from large shopping centers give a home town feel with access to mid-sized city (Kalamazoo/Battle Creek/Grand Rapids) amenities and venues. "
