    "A lot of people here let their dogs come into your yard and poop. It’s pretty bad. A lot of folks also do not keep their dogs locked in their property so if you are out walking expect yo run into other loose dogs. Finally many residents don’t use leashes when walking their pups "

    "do not move here! it's still going under gentrification which means there are still a lot of prostitutes and thieves the walk the streets at night my car gets broken into pretty regularly to the point where I don't even lock it anymore or keep valuables inside just to make it easier for someone to see there's no need to break my windows. if you're dumb enough to fall for the cheap rent that's your fault"
