    "It’s safe but like any neighborhood these days, keep your eye out. There are sketchy people in every neighborhood. Also, the school system is trash here so if you have middle school high school aged children look elsewhere."

    "Nothing much special. The town has changed since I was young. No one comes out to talk anymore. People moving in have escaped cities, but have not embraced small town living. Every house has floodlights to ward off strangers.."
