    "I’ve lived in this neighborhood for three years. I’ve had a few packages stolen, and since there are no cameras anywhere I can’t really tell where they went. Sometimes you won’t be able to park near your apartment but it’s literally not a far walk. There aren’t a lot of pets near my apartment but they are near the mailbox and pool and it’s a lot of pet poop near."
