I believe that is age-friendly due to the fact that most of us that are here is over the age of 50 and it's a very quiet neighborhood and friendly helpful to each other when needed.

The community I live in is a family oriented community. There's people with family's and there are people who are single and live alone. Its close to public transportation, you can also walk to local stores, so its easy to get around. Its a neat and clean community that is kept up by the residents, who all seem to look out for one another and the children that live in the community. There are a few schools that are walking distance, but if the kids need to take transportation they can.
