This area is centrally located and close to the highway. It is easy for me to get to the beach, downtown, to the airport, etc. I would choose this area again if given the chance.

Though I choose to use a burglar alarm in my house, I feel safe in my neighborhood. I don't notice a lot of police around, but the neighbors are nice and friendly.

It's only great if you're driving. Public transport takes an insane amount of time and is usually late, taxi's are very expensive as well
