"This neighborhood is very homey, but good luck turning out on to highland during most parts of the day. The traffic on this stretch of highland is horrible and it is the only way out of the neighborhood. There are also big dogs that run around certain cul-de-sacs freely, which concerned me with children. I did like the fact that lots of people in the neighborhood are active and walk and ride bikes within the neighborhood."
