    "Lived here for the last 5 years. Truly great neighborhood, walking distance to Trader Joes, Whole Foods, Erehwon, and Expo Line station. Very quiet, easy in and out with traffic. Both kids went to public schools, awesome education. Wished we lived here when they were little - the beautiful Douglass and Yahoo park are definite bonuses. Commute is probably the only against traffic in La County. "
