    "Busy main road. Dogs have to be leashes or chained at all times. Landlords are really funny about the dogs as well and like to think private property is a housing authority. "

    "Waynesboro is a pretty good town. Would I live here if mine and my fiancé's jobs weren't here? No. But I already live here, and i can't complain too much. It is very pretty, though there is a bit of a littering problem. Having lived in all three, I recommend Staunton or Verona over Waynesboro any day. "

    "We have trails. On any given day we see ten to fifteen pass our house. We have some behind fences. There are lease laws. We personally have two saved dogs. At times we stop and talk to neighbors with our dogs. There are a lot of different types. The dogs are curious about the geese. We have seven homes being built at one time. Prices are starting to rise. The neighbors dog was bond with my dog yesterday. New in the neighborhood."
