    "The neighborhood is dog-friendly but expects dogs to be on a leash most of the time. There are receptacles and poop bags available, especially in the park area, and dog owners are expected to pick up after their animals."

    "It's near the center of town and has a variety of socioeconomic groups represented. Most of the houses in the area were built in the '40s, '50s, and '60s, and many have been drastically altered from their original form, featuring additions that cover much of the lots, as well as second stories.There are a lot of shops and restaurants within easy driving or even walking distance, and the neighborhood park is large enough to accommodate a lot of people."

    "Excellent access to downtown via Lamar Blvd. The dedicated Park Land that is Pease Park ensures no future development from, roughly 15th through to 35th. The Shoal Creek Trail begins @ 38th and can be followed to the Lake and points beyond."
