      The neighbors are incredibly friendly. We know each other and have get togethers. It's a very active neighborhood. Great for walks or runs, too. There are many families and it's a very safe area.

      One of the nicest areas to live in the KC metro with great golf courses and very friendly people. Close to the Village shopping center as well.
