  • Scott S.
    "Dog owners shouldn’t have much of a problem in this neighborhood. There are a few parks in walking distance that they can utilize for exercise. One issue is that there are stray “outdoor” cats. They mark territory and kill grass so a dog may be aware of these scents and I have seen behavior which a dog becomes nervous or intimidated by these scents or they can try and dig. "

  • Cody R.
    "I've lived in this neighborhood for 3 years. It's a great, friendly neighborhood. There's little restaurants and grocery stores that we walk to every week. We see familiar faces around and make friends with neighbors. It's really a great place. The one negative thing is that it's a bit loud at times (airport) but you adjust pretty quickly, and the Midway-provided windows block the sound really well."
