There are restaurants in other townships, and the people that live in the other townships are very sensitive about being lumped together with Lakewood.

I made some minor tweaks to the Wiki, but it really needs some help.

IMO the subjective adjectives should be removed, someone calling a place "nice" doesn't give any context. Additionally, I think it should be fact based not opinion based.

I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.
