    "I’ve been living here for 2 years now & it feels like a safe neighborhood being next to the hospital, patrol cars are everywhere.

Lots of ice cream trucks coming by in the afternoon, so your kids in luck if he’s got a sweet tooth "

I work in la puente. I can get there in a little over 22 minutes with no traffic. The ride home is almost the same. "
