    "I've lived here for 25 years, as of 2021. Neighbors friendly and look out for each other. Convenient for shopping and transportation. Doctor and dentist office within walking distance. Only time we had an extended blackout was hurricane sandy, about four days, no flooding on my block. Children very respectful. "
