Overall the houses were built 1950s-1970s, though some much newer. Incomes follow a similar pattern. Public transportation is extremely limited. Most streets are nice for walking but everything is far apart.

Our area has typically voted more moderately than much of the state on both candidates and ballot issues over the past several election cycles.
