How is Andover for outdoor activities?
Longtime lurker here, I'm a college student here and It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Any advice would be great.

I've lived in Oak Park for about 12 years now, so I can give you a pretty detailed perspective.
I'm still on the fence after all this time. When I first moved here from Portland, I was surprised by traffic. It took some adjustment but now I wouldn't trade it.
A few things worth knowing:
- Low crime in most neighborhoods
- Good healthcare facilities
- The public transit scene is hit or miss
The downsides:
- Chain restaurants dominate
- Limited entertainment options
Overall I'd rate it 5/10 for retirees. Good luck with whatever you decide..
