    "The variety of activities you could find in my area is impeccable, one day could be completely quiet and calm. The following few days could be full of kids running around playing , which is not a bad thing, kind of brightens your day in a sense to see kids still enjoying basketball hoops in driveways and courtyards to play kickball. I will also say the night life could be full of cars getting broken into, messed with , and fights on occasion, very unique i’d say, being a 20 second drive from allentown to get here . "
