    "most people in this area are scared of big dogs even though most big dogs in this area are very friendly! unfortunately most people don't really understand dogs and their personalities! most big dogs just crave attention and are perhaps a little overzealous about it, but most people don't understand that they are just being friendly!"

    "It’s beautiful. The houses are typically well kept. The houses aren’t so close that we feel like we can reach out the windows and touch each other. The houses are older and smaller but that’s ok. Good schools here too. "

    "This is a safe neighbourhood. Though, there's someone flying a confederate flag. A police academy is nearby, so you hear lots of gunshots every morning. People park their RVs and horse trailers everywhere and take up a lot of street parking. You definitely need a car."
