The neighborhood that I am in is one that I never thought that neighbors do, because they do things such as warn others in the neighborhood about suspicious things happening, they are very friendly, there is also accessories that people in the neighborhood put up on trees depending on the season or time of year. They are all in touch with a group chat of the neighborhood and I find it very helpful. So I would rate the area and my neighborhood that I am in a 5 because the neighborhood is very helpful, considerate and nice.

With over 300 days of sun, I enjoy this weather so much. During summer months it can get a little hot but that is why we have swimming pools. The monsoons are a pleasant relief from the hot summer months.
