reviewsThis neighborhood was very welcoming to us when we first moved in about 8 years ago. There are lots of families with kids of various ages that my siblings were able to connect with. There's a wide variety of shops and restaurants near by that give plenty of options for grocery shopping, fast food, and eating out. The neighborhood I live in is small and collective, and everyone gets a long pretty well.
