Neighborhood is great. I love supporting local restaurants. Everything being in walking distance is very convenient.

What I do like about Marine Park is that it has a huge park, allowing people to get fresh air and not have to go far to be satisfied with outdoor activities. While the neighborhood itself is very nice, it is not diverse at all, and I would love to see that happen.

There is a great sense of community and the entire neighborhood is pet and family friendly. There are many community vents for everyone to meet each other.
