Very low crime rate; neighborhoods are all tree lined; and there are lots of cafes and shopping.

The movie theater is my favorite place. You don't have to fight for a seat. However, the traffic is horrible. You can't get anywhere quickly. It takes along time to get anywhere. Theres street lights at every quarter mile I think
