    "Busy streets but safe along freeway. Bike paths are accessible and near several grocery stores and restaurants. Good place for single people or couples since apartments run cheaper here than other parts of the Metro Honolulu areas. "

    "It is so conveniently located. Easy access to shopping, businesses and the freeway. Most neighbors are friendly. Although the neighborhood is densely populated, it is still relatively quiet and peaceful. It is a very ethnically diverse neighborhood that works well blending and assimilating those cultures together. "

    "Peaceful, friendly, lots of flowers and trees, great parks, lovely old homes and pleasant condos - low traffic as it is at the foot of the mountains, safe from floods (or tsunamis), good schools, hospitals, shopping, great bus transport to anywhere on Oahu, and Makiki Park! What more could anyone want???"
