      "Lots of parks for owners to take their dogs to play with other dogs. Plenty of trash bins as well, which is nice. "
    • Trulia User
      "great small park and walking the cemetery is really popular. Waller creek park nearby is reopening. "
    • Shani R.
      "Commute to sunset valley ranges from 20min during non rush hour times and 45min during rush hour. Commute to downtown is 10min. Walkable to HEB and neighborhood coffee "
    • Vegasun
      "I don’t own a dog. So I can’t advise. However there are many dog owners in this neighborhood. ............."
    • Nicole J.
      "Dogs are welcome to most establishments in East Austin, and in most apartment complexes as well."
    • Stacie W.
      "Dog owners will love it! There are so many dog parks and dog friendly patios in the area!"
    • Debra W.
      "There are not enough sidewalks, so you wind up walking your dog in the street."
    • Susan E.
      "There are few dog parks, a major negative."
    • C T
      "The diversity in East Austin is a benefit. It's close to everything, and the houses are not that expensive compared to some other locations."
    • Nicole J.
      "It has a good mix of 'old East Austin' and new, modern establishments. The neighborhood is very walkable, with everything we need (restaurants, shops, etc.) close by. And it's a quick walk to downtown."
    • Stacie W.
      "There's a broad variety of people in this area. Some friendly, some not. But you likely won't see the same person twice in one day!"
    • Debra W.
      "Easy access to and from I-35. We are located centrally so it's easy to get in and out of the neighborhood."
    • Nicole J.
      "We almost always walk. For driving, I-35 is very close by. Downtown is a 10—15 minute walk away."
    • Stacie W.
      "Hectic. There are too many people walking/driving/biking all in the same lane!"
    • Sylvia G.
      "It's two miles on I-35 to my downtown job. The only issue is too much traffic on the roads."
    • Nicole J.
      "There aren't as many crosswalks and traffic lights as some parents might want."
    • David V.
      "The neighborhood is diverse as far as age goes, so there is a mix of families and a younger generation. But even the younger professional generation is pretty subdued in my neighborhood. It's definitely not a college student area with parties or anything."
    • Debra W.
      "This is a safe neighborhood for children, but we need more sidewalks. Cars drive too fast through our streets."
    • Michelle L.
      "We all work together to make the neighborhood welcoming and safe."
    • Susan E.
      "Commuting out of the neighborhood can be hectic due to its high density."
    • Jayne K.
      "Though Austin schools have been criticized, the Blackshear Elementary school is in the top 10 in AISD. We have 4th Fridays on 11th Street where restaurants and retailers join with residents to celebrate our neighborhood. Quick jaunt to the airport, too, without the noise - airlines usually fly away from our neighborhood - incoming/outgoing. And there is Metrorail nearby. Truly a changing community with inclusion for old and new."
