    "Nice neighborhood, lots of dog walkers in my area. Close to dog parks as well Quiet at night and during the day. "
  • Cicily Hook
    "There are lots of dogs in the neighborhood. Therefore means there is barking. Don’t move to a dog friendly neighborhood if you don’t like that. Also loose dogs from time to time. Not a huge problem. "
  • Lacey N.
    "I lived in the neighborhood for 6 years and I loved it! People are always willing to help and very friendly "
  • Samuel Solano
    "Nice, safe, part of the south side. Good restaurants with easy access to downtown! Most neighborhoods are really quiet."
  • Bacon
    "Cheap neighborhood with a lot of issues. It is not the greatest neighborhood, but you can tell most of the people here do not care about its deteriorating value and culture. Cannot wait to move out of here next month."
