Comments about Centreville S

Clifton Townes (Submitted by JY)

Very nice community build around 1989 and 1990. There is some room in the parking area that gives the community an open, homey feel compared to newer, grid built townhome communities. The people are nice, but generally keep to themselves unless purposefully engaged. Feels very safe and quite. A great community to live in.
