    "There are many families in our area. Be sure to look at what matters to you and yours - make sure your area provides it. We lack local playground parks, and schools without having to drive out. An area of grass is not a park. We currently live in an apartment area where there has been constant construction since we moved in two years ago (still hasn't stopped). "
