I really liked what their public schools had to offer. They offered an abundance of A.P. classes to choose from. Along with that they also supplied you with plenty of college ready tools.

This is a great place to live. There are so many local restaurants, stores, malls, parks, and interesting places opening up. The schools are excellent and--especially during the summer--concerts and events abound.

I generally feel very safe. There's no guns, murder, or serious crimes. Occasional burglary, minor drug related crime among teenagers.
