    "The potholes on the back roads in Goodyear Heights need fixed; theyre terrible. My car was in perfect shape when I moved here in September on 2017 and since then it's been beaten to a pulp by the roads. It'd be appropriated and definitely wouldnt go unnoticed if there was a little bit of care put into the streets of our neighborhoods. Thank you 💕"

    "I wouldn’t say it’s special but it’s one of the better parts of Akron. Yes stuff still happens here but not too often. I’ve lived here for 11 years and counting and haven’t had too much trouble with the neighborhood but of course there’s always those one or two houses that you just don’t get why they don’t keep up with their property."

    "We have two large dogs that are avid walkers. We hate walking the dogs in our area because there are several dog owners that don’t leash and our dogs have been approached multiple times and have even been but before. Now, on the other side of Goodyear Heights near the park we’ve never had this issue. We could walk those neighborhoods for two hours with no issue. Now, near 6 corners we can’t even walk around the school without an issue, and our dogs aren’t agressors."

The only thing that is not so nice, is the high school for our kids. The kids are a bit rough around the edges, but with alternative choices for school, This area could be our permanent home."
