      "Dangerous environment dogs off leash. Crime and it’s very dirty. If you live in an apartment complex that has a dog park you will be okay. "

      "I don’t see dog wonders walking their dogs. Some stray animals. I would recommend going a bit higher in price and renting near river. Better view and dog friendly. "

      "There are a lot of trails and dog parks. People all have dogs and clean up after them . Lady bird lake is close by and people love to take the dogs swimming from the open spots and go canoeing with their dogs. Also a lot of swimming spots in Austin. I think it’s like having a child in Austin. A dog socializes people and brings them together. People are very friendly "

      "Closer to Town Lake. Rasy access to public transportation. A LOT of homeless people camped out right on sidewalks and public spaces. Police can't even make them move. Needles and paraphernalia litter public spaces. This is a problem all of Austin is dealing and getting worse since July 1st, 2019. Not safe. "
