    "First you’ll need to drive around and check out the community and judge for yourself. Jamestown the city is a small struggle but when you’re in the outer county areas you’ll fall in love. It’s a beautiful place to live, visit and enjoy but when you visit have a open mind and respect our community "

    "It is almost impossible to get in and out of your driveway on Martin Road. If you ever need to park on the street you are doing so at a high risk of damage to your vehicle, I live very close to this listing and have experienced nothing but problems with the traffic this road brings since I moved into my home a couple of years ago. Also with the children walking by going to or leaving school, you are sure to find lots of garbage in your front yard left by them, if they do not destroy property in your front yard. consider this before purchasing on this road, there are many other homes available in this general area that are off this main road."
