    "The side walks are widened so plenty of room for walks, and there are posts that give out doggy bags for dog waste. However, it’s far and few that there are any bags, or that people pick up after their dogs. There also isn’t trash cans to dispose of the waste. "

    "I have lived here for just one year now and I am in love with this location! There are many young couples and couple with children. Between block parties and school events I have so many opportunities in my community to make a difference. We also have a large breed dog and the walking paths/bike trails are right close by with easy accessibility so the community is really pet-friendly. The kids get along great and there is no traffic so it is very safe for young children."
