      "You see people walking there dog all the time. This neighborhood is very dog friendly. I recommend this as a great place."
    • Jaki-sieran J.
      "Gainesville is a great place and peaceful can ask for more ... we loved to stay here in this place. "
    • Micaela P.
      "Around here, owners seem to mistreat their dogs. There are plenty of ambulances, so if your dog were to howl, many people would get mad as not everybody in this area likes dogs. They probably wouldnt like this area, as people do not hesitate to call the cops on your dog, even if they hadnt done anything. There are a lot of bikers and people who walk throughout the neighborhood, so if your dog regularly chases people, then it would not be the best place for them."
    • Julie W.
      "I live in a much older part of town. The roads are well maintained. However the main roads in and out of town flood terribly."
