What do you like most about living in Huntington?
Growing up in Huntington, there was always a feeling of closeness to the neighbors in the community. Years later, raising a family in the same neighborhood I grew up in, there are still a lot of those same connections being made with families growing. I believe in our communities, and by strengthening family involvement and connectivity, we can instill a love of our city for generations to come. Those connections and memories built are what I love most about Huntington.
