First of all, many other families with children live here, making Dartmouth a place where both parents and children are more likely to develop social ties with other families, as well as find family-oriented services and community.

Dartmouth is primarily built for cars, and driving around town will bare this out. Shopping centers, parking lots, strip malls, and wide streets are what you'll find. Sidewalks? Sure. But not everywhere, and walking to most places can be downright scary.
