    "Some areas dogs roam on their own and not all dogs are friendly. Less likely within city limits, but there's more country than city limits. There are dog parks in Dunn & surrounding areas. "

    "Very quiet and friendly mostly older people are here, so it’s very well kept. Community pace is generally slower than normal. It’s close to the city but it’s surrounded by country living, so you get a feel for city life with its convenience of stores and restaurants without the traffic."
