    "I really enjoy living in this neighborhood because almost everyone in the neighborhood is very friendly. If you go to the park to watch your children play or watch your dog play at the dark parks you are almost always going to find somebody who you can consider a friend in the neighborhood :)"

    "My neighborhood is wonderful but we need a close grocery store. The closest store is 17 miles away. It would be great to have a gas station near too. There are a lot of people out her. Great for families and quiet. "

    "I drive from place to place. There’s nothing really close by the neighborhood. Walmart is at least a 15 minute drive. There’s no bus stop to take any one any where so you would need a car to commute."

    "Beautiful views of the Sandia mountains, much less crime compared to our neighboring city of ABQ. Much better schools as well. Depending on what part of Rio Rancho you're in, stores/restaurants may be a little distance away since the city is still fairly new. "
