    "Dogs are walked, both on sidewalks and alley ways. Done barking dogs in neighborhood and a few coyotes. "
  • Drew Woll
    "Close to almost anything in the Cincinnati area. If commute is a top priority this is the cheapest location with the shortest commute. I work 30 mins up north in Springdale which is a 25 mile drive. In 30 mins I could probably make it down to Williamstown, KY. South of MLK Street can be a bit unsafe just fyi."
