This area is very family oriented and there is not a lot of night life. Most places close down around 9pm or 10pm. There is not a lot of variety as far as food goes.

There's lots of businesses in the area and everything you need is around. Items range from food to electronics.

Houses look clean and spacious but a bit too close to each other. There are also a lot of dog owners so it is quite noisy sometimes.
