    "Our neighborhood called North Kingwood Forest is great for young couples with children or those who like outdoors! We honestly live in the best street called My Way, where all the neighbors are super friendly and we watch each others kids and dogs like our own. My husband and I just organized a block party for Halloween and we had the entire street coming, it was awesome! If you’re looking for a safe place and sociable neighbors, you will love it..."
