      There are regular visits of cop cars in the neighborhood; circling and checking everything out. I personally think that is great.

      I love living in the area that i live in. It is close to country living, but not too far from town.
      I love Greenwood because it is a small town close to my school and church. It has the nicest people and great neighborhoods.
