    "It is hard Sometimes to get things the way she like it but I usually take the highway no malcome x blvd"
  • Shane Johnson
    "They would not like the lack of safe spaces to walk your dog. Meaning that the areas that you can walk are not well lit and not well maintained, and then the dog owners usually will not have their own dogs leashed"
  • Trulia User
    "Sometimes dogs escape their enclosure to play in our courtyard here. So we became friendly with our neighbors. "
  • Lilcocojr12

  • Cynthia M.
    "You see people walking there dogs all the time. Alot of the dogs are security dogs though, but those ones are behind fences. No problems about 95% pick up after the dogs too."
  • Jessica L. B.
    "I've lived here for three years and my neighbors are friendly and mind there own business and it's quiet."
  • Kim
    "This area is great. The homes are affordable, but close to everything. Old Town, downtown Lansing, and East Lansing are all close. Lots of public transportation, parks, etc. Free on street parking for guests in many areas. I've been very happy living here."
  • Francis
    "I have lived in these are for over a year now and every day it has grown more on me. I think there is only one reason why people don't "like" Lansing and many parts of Michigan. There just aren't enough jobs. That simple."
