This is a diverse town home association neighborhood. I believe at least 65% are over the age of 55. I believe people feel safe here. It see all watch out for one another. Many of residents have a dog or two I see many people ride their scooters on the sidewalks which are always promptly cleaned and shoveled by he association.There are grocery and drug stores within walking distance along with several different places to eat.
