    "I travel by public transportation for now. It’s kind of accommodating but it could be better. One of the buses has limited hours of service and the drivers don’t always come as scheduled. It makes people late for work and that isn’t fair."

    "I use to own a home on Walnut Street in Catasauqua but I sold it before the market crashed in 2007. My X wife grew up in this town and back in the day it was nice place to live. Now, it's the armpit of the Lehigh Valley. Unfortunately, the less desireables moved in from Allentown. The place is a dump now. There are 7 sex offenders within 3 miles from my x's new residence. Great and we have a daughter together. Way to go NMG... well thought out. "
