"We have a neighborhood watch and neighborhood garage sales as well, neighborhood calander and app to stay connected with one another "

"It is decent neighborhood. Close to stores and restaurants. I wish the neighbors were more friendly and spoke to us. I wish the roads were better in our area. "

"For the most part this neighborhood has been okay but it is getting tougher and I’m a little worried sometimes of the violence reaching my specific neighborhood. They already do not deliver pizza after 7 o’clock pm"

"This is a pocket neighborhood with only one entrance. There is a pool and wooded area with a creek and walking trail. The pool has a swim team for the kids and swim lessons, and there are also movie nights and other fun activities. The pool can also be rented out, complete with lifeguards, for parties. There is also a large open field where kids can play sports or fly kites. There is a voluntary HOA that is social in nature--has parties, parades, etc. The HOA also takes care of snow removal and street light fees. Neighbors keep an eye out for any suspicious activity and promptly report to police as there is an active neighborhood crime watch. Most of the kids in the neighborhood go to the year-round lottery schools--Fishback and New Augusta. It is also very close to The International School of Indianapois, Brebeuf, and Orchard. If you work at St. Vincents 86th, DowAgrosciences, 3M, Park 100 or even downtown, the commute from this neighborhood is very easy. My husband worked at DowAgro and his commute was less than 10 minutes. There are lots of kids in the neighborhood as well as retirees and young couples. People in the neighborhood keep up their yards and property. It is also close to Eagle Creek and the IMA. Just down Michigan is the IMA where you can access bike trails throughout the city. "
