    "I adore the trees. This landscape is extremely rare in Oakland. The trees run perpendicular to Havenscourt, and there aren't many scary jail like fences in this neighborhood. Plus the community is really active here. There are approximately 27 community members that are very active in this small community. Oh watch out if you litter, we will all get your attention. Anyways, just to keep it short, its a great neighborhood. "
