I really like the cost of living. I wish the zoned public schools were way better (based on great schools scores).

I wish homeowners that that rent their houses...would not rent to college students. Most college students do not care where they park, or whose yard they park on. I like this area and love my home.

I think I don't fit in this area because they're all very quite and don't like meeting others and my and my family are different we like to meet others. I see this area in the future will be very expensive with a high monthly payment.
