I lived in Garden City for the majority of my life (18 years). I'm currently in college but my family still resides there. The community is friendly and we have known our neighbors for a very long time (probably longer than I've been alive). The neighborhood is a little run down in some spots but recently people have begun to clean things up. The schools are excellent and the people are even better if you take the time to get to know them.
