👍👍 If you’re looking for a place to move or even visit, this is it. It’s so close to downtown but without the cons of living downtown. It’s safe, quiet, family-friendly, and beautiful. It’s usually a bit cheaper to live here too! The tram is fun to ride, F line runs through it, you’ve got the ferry too...
