What do you think is the most important characteristic of a good neighborhood? I think that the most important characteristic to a good neighborhood is that whether my school is close to my house. I feel this way for a couple of reasons. First of all, I can save money on the transportation. To be more specific, because I can go to my school on foot, instead of taking bus or riding car. Therefore, I can save nearly one thousand dollar every month. Moreover, I also can save a lot of time to go to my school. I can always sleep very late to school than other students, because I only have to spent five minutes to school. With enough sleeping time, I can have more energy to learn and study.
