    "Great neighborhood and place to grow up in for the Kiddos! Love my neighbors. Love that we’re just a stone throw away from Travis heights and downtown but at a fraction of the price. "

    "This is an older neighborhood in Austin so you won't have all the bells and whistles like a community pool, playground, etc but the best part of that is you also won't have an HOA breathing down your neck. You are free to paint your house whatever color you want, let your grass grow and have chickens if you so choose. People mostly mind their own business but as neighbors we are tight and lend a helping hand if needed. One woman has given us a key to her backyard so we can use her pool for years. The only community event I know of is an annual garage sale. I think I remember some kind of neighborhood party last year but I don't go to those sorts of things. We are an old south Austin neighborhood that has managed to keep the old Austin beliefs around. The schools aren't great but what can you do?"

    "Many many dogs in the area but most are indoor dogs. Owners walk their fur babies at all times day and night in the neighborhood and sometimes people even let their dogs off the leash. Garrison Park is across the street with lots of room for dogs "
