"Keep your kids in the backyard playing . There’s no sidewalks at all . Makes it very hard to go for walks . Packages being stolen from door steps all the time. Cadillac converters being stolen off cars. Not a really safe neighborhood like when we moved here 7 years ago . "

"Here in this neighborhood, there really isn't a park close to take your dog on a walk. When you do, you go through the streets walking your dog. Many families here do have dogs in their yards, so do be vigilant. "
