    "People are very friendly and neighborly here. I do not like that the elementary school is so close to the dump. "
  • Stacyjofowler
    "I’ve lived here for 16 years. We have amazing neighbors that watch out for each other. I love the small town where you know so many people. My only downfall is the school being so close to the dump and the smell of the dump."
  • Denise S.
    "My neighborhood is very family oriented and safer than most. Police patrol very often I appreciate the presence of them and glad they drive around all the time. Wish there were more sidewalks on the main roads but other than that very happy about living here"
  • C. L.
    "My commute is only ten minutes to work, to shop, and to exercise. I drive on mostly two lane highways. Traffic is never heavy. "
  • C.L.
    "My subdivision connects to a main highway and my drive to work takes ten to twelve minutes on roads with moderate traffic in two lanes. "
  • Christopher
    "I love the small town feel of Cortland, while being able to shop or go out to eat 5mins away in DeKalb or Sycamore. It’s the best of both worlds. Most importantly, neighbors look out for one another."
