Neighborhood is quiet.
Because generally everyone keeps to themselves, but if we see each other we are cordial . Also I have quiet neighbors and that what I like.
I'm currently a caregiver. I'm a basic medic and in school now for medical coding advancement. Our neighborhood is vast. They're are May activities around and lots of shopping and restaurants of high quality.
Springfield and its surrounding suburbs is extremely age friendly. They have multiple health care facilities, a great transportation system, wonderful law enforcement engagement and often hold get-togethers for seniors.
