    "The commute is awful. You only get in or out two ways to the highway and there is always traffic. It’s not a good place to commute from."

    "There are many young families in the neighborhood and several nice parks. Schools aren’t great, however, both in terms of the education they provide and the facilities themselves, which are dated and run down. "

    "The neighborhood seems to have gotten much better over the years (safety wise) but still has its moments. Cars still get broken into a lot. New apartments and shops have been added so its not the same as before. Stores are not very far from each other and outdoor activities. Every neighborhood is different. "
