You and your dog will feel at home and safe unlike a lot of places in the city. If you need puppy training classes, Mark over at unleashed is fantastic. Most places let your bring your dog in and if you’re Dining out, patios are the perfect spot . "

A truly diverse place where people of many races, social identities, and economic classes live together with an amazing sense of togetherness. Almost any product or service you want is within a few blocks walk, and people & families of all types use all of them. I’m a happy resident."
