    "There is literally a bar with tons of outside seating and a dog park in Baylor, as far as I’m concerned it’s very dog friendly considering you can have a mixed drink while your dog runs around in the play area"

    "The kids I’ve talked to (6-12y/o) around here say there aren’t enough kids around. But there are plenty of ‘little kids,’ especially around the graduate housing (and the Catholic center). Something to watch out for, for anyone, is moving near a party house, for sake of noise. The police have been pretty good about shutting them down around 11, but that’s still pretty late even for me.
