    "It is hard to live here and depend on public transportation. You must have a car for groceries and emergencies. There is no biking path or good side walks. "

    "Excellent elementary school. No major road between usand elementary school or Middle school. No fences, kids move through back yards as if it is a giant park. Close to shopping, but quiet and no traffic. Close to Cornell. Loved living here for the last 11 years."
