I have lived in Marine Park for almost 8 years. It is safe neighborhood and everybody knows everybody which is what I like the most about it. I have met my closest friends in this neighborhood. My favorite part about Marine Park is that we are very patriotic. Driving down the street you will notice everyone has the American flag waving proudly outside their houses.
