    "Busy streets and lots of traffic or not a lot of yard to play in because it is surrounded by mostly lake "

    "The lakes are really fun during the summer months. Fireworks are always beautiful. Fishing, boating and other fun summer activities. In the winter they do the Christmas tree lighting ceremony. Santa comes around in his sleigh and brings gifts to the children. "

    "Lots of dog owners here, animal control is not much of a problem for pet owners who choose to let their domestic animals roam free. Cats and dogs can roam and not be taken to the pound, as neighbors are friendly."
