Outdoor time centers on Kennedy and Lafayette parks and the Quequechan River Rail Trail for biking and jogging, with kayaking and fishing on South Watuppa Pond; nightlife here skews low-key with neighborhood pubs and nearby Troy City Brewing, while the waterfront arts scene is a short hop away. I-195 and Route 24 make it commuter friendly. Side streets feel community-oriented and pet friendly with walkable blocks and pocket green spaces.
