"There is dogs galore. A dog grooming place is actually near downtown. People are friendly and the dogs are nice too. I honestly can’t say much about people picking up behind their dogs because I don’t go out much but when I do people do pick up behind their dogs. "

"Franklin is a quaint country town in Virginia. The people are pleasant and very welcoming. There isn't much in the way of night life, but it is a rather nice area for relaxation and retreating from the every day hustle and bustle of city life. "

"This is one of the best neighborhoods, quiet and peaceful. You can enjoy the sunrise out the front door and sunset out the backdoor. The view is absolutely beautiful, sit out front and enjoy the view of Deer playing in the field across the road. "
