    "I’ve lived here for 24 years (my whole life) this town is slowly getting better over time. They’re really trying to clean it up and make it nice. They even added a dog park with little obstacles!The schools aren’t terrible but the HS is pretty bad. They do nothing to prepare you for college. They don’t even care if you fail. No one is really there to help you (but that can change, I graduated in 2014). Neighbors aren’t all too friendly, but it’s a cute and diverse town with some nice people. Close to major highways and lots to eat around here. "

    "lived here going on 3 years. the neighbors are friendly, I commute in public transit with some from the surrounding houses. A lot of young families love around us and we run into our kid's friends from school a lot and we've gotten to know some of the parents. For a narrow street residential street we get a lot of vehicle and foot traffic (including kids on bikes, skateboards and scooters) and with that I feel safe. "
