    "it's one of the few places in Las Vegas that is peaceful quiet and family playing outside. Also one of the few places you can see children riding their bikes and actually being children and not worried about the horrible things around them"

    "The commute from The Lakes area is fantastic. The 215 freeway is easily accessible and connects to the 95 and 15 freeways seamlessly. All surface streets on this end of town can go entirely through the valley from one end to the other with the lights being excellently timed. "
