The area features a mix of condos, brick-walled townhouses, and amenity-filled apartments, alongside ranch-style and colonial-influenced houses, many with attached garages. The neighborhood's layout, with traffic circles and cul-de-sacs, helps minimize through traffic despite its proximity to Packard Street. Georgetown is home to Bryant and Pattengill Elementary Schools, which are paired and highly rated, along with Tappan Middle School and Pioneer High School, both receiving top marks. Local parks such as Esch Park, Stone School Park, and Mary Beth Doyle Park offer various recreational activities, from basketball and hiking to seasonal ice skating at Buhr Park.
