    "The neighborhood is pretty quiet. It does get really dark. Not enough street lights. With all the land being destroyed around us there are more and more sightings of bears etc. Always keep your pets on a leash and carry a blow horn, pepper spray and maybe even a taser. You never know is when you might have to try to rescue your fur baby. Better safe than sorry. "

The residents of this neighborhood take pride, maintain, and upgrade their homes accordingly. Unlike the Shores or Marion Oaks where you will find an abundance of homes for sale, the turnover rate in this neighborhood is rare and the residents have all lived here for years."

    "I’ve lived here my entire life. I was born in 2000 and am turning 24 in October. Ocala has some things for little children, but it mainly caters to the adult and wealthy populations (ie, downtown & WEC). There is little to nothing to do as a teenager/young adult, or a poor person, for free or low cost. Ocala’s refusal to cater to the young adult and poor population has been a very direct contributor to the rise of drug use and violent crime. "
