After speaking with some of the neighbors in the area, I was able to learn the most common reasons people move or live in Butterfield Riviera:
- River and trail access
- Peaceful and quiet community
- Kid friendly environment
- Multi-function neighborhood parks (Kids area, tennis courts, basketball etc)
- Convenient commuting location
- Feels safe
- Wildlife diversity
The one issue residents worried over were fast drivers in the neighborhood, especially when kids or pets were out but also remarked that table speed bumps had recently been installed along many of the blocks and seemed to be cutting the worry and speed down.
