    "Northern Troy has a high Crime rate of 35 per 1000. It is rundown with boarded up homes & buildings, and a lot of closed businesses. We rented there, and my significant other did not feel safe walking around there. So I would not say it is walkable or bikeable. And I wouldn't want to bring up a family in Troy. Before you rent or buy, walk through the neighborhood. "

    "It’s a cute little downtown and there are wonderful examples of intact 19th century architecture and nice local businesses and restaurants. It probably just needs to continue to clean up and get some more population. It’s just a little empty when schools are not in session."

    "very great transportation with many different types of shopping stores so you don't have to travel far, pretty much any store you need from groceries to hair products, dollar stores, and fast food all right next to each other in a plaza only by walking 5 to 10 minutes away, from home, if you don't feel like driving you can just walk to any sore you need "

    "The public elementary schools are very good with caring teachers. The area is within walking distance to Peebles Island State Park. With the ice rink, walking/running track, tennis courts, Powers Park with summer concerts, library and Lansingbugh Historical Society, it is a convenient and accessible friendly village. It’s on the upswing. After 18 years here, I’ve seen progress and enjoy being part of the solution."
