I lived there for 7 years and quite enjoyed my stay. The natural grassland area is a major plus... it's nice to have a pocket of unspoiled prairie landscape in the middle of the neighbourhood. Silverspring is also adjacent to the Forestry Farm Park and Zoo, which is a big draw for kids (of all ages). One disadvantage of the neighbourhood is the lack of services within walking distance. The nearest commercial areas are Preston Crossing to the west, Sutherland to the south or University Heights to the east. Their distance pretty much forces one to have a vehicle to get groceries or any other commercial goods. The two elementary schools are a comfortable walk for kids, but high school students have to trek a little farther to get to the high schools in University Heights.
