Here we have hundreds of homes (new subdivisions) within a half mile of the brand new middle and elementary schools. But there are no sidewalks or safe crossings with police or crossing guards. The kids literally can't walk the two blocks to school. Yup - car after car sitting idling, twice a day ... It's sad.
