Walkability 4.0/10·Schools 6.6/10
You're basically living at ground level with everything—grocery's a couple steps away, same with a handful of restaurants, so your weeknight routine is just walk out the door instead of loading up the car. There are about 14 places to eat within a mile, which means you're not stuck eating the same place twice, and if you want coffee you're looking at just over a mile away. The real bonus is Clay Cliffs Nature Area is a ten-minute walk, so you've got green space right there without having to plan a whole trip. The neighborhood sits on about 308 acres, so there's room to breathe, and with five grocery stores within a couple miles, you're never scrambling for basics.
