    "Most people are friendly and have dogs. The school makes sure to get the kids on their way when school is let out. Many people maintain the streets clean so not a lot of alternate side parking."

    "It’s very quiet, especially if you’re a couple of blocks away from the main roads like Linden Blvd, Springfield Blvd and Francis Lewis Blvd. Sidewalks are always clean, pretty spacious and a lot of parking. Public transportation is close by but far enough to not here the constant noise of traffic. "
