    "Fabulous place for dogs b/c doggie park enabling them to socialize with their own kind (1 for large, 1 for small dogs), is just 10 min. away where there are also wooded trails & walkways for them in South Mountain Reservation + a beautiful walking trail around waterfront at South Mt. Recreation Center. They can even be featured in an annual Halloween Doggie Parade there. Millburn Petsmart is 15 min. away & other groomers within 10 min. I don’t know anything about the rest but at least in Ivy Hill area of Upper Vailsburg where I’ve lived a couple of decades, most people walk their dogs leashed & clean up behind them. Nearest of numerous parks to walk them in are 5 min. walks to 5 min. drive away. The neighborhoods are quiet & peaceful for the most part."

    "There is a good mix of incomes and cultures. It is very easy to see how the neighborhood is changing because houses on some streets have beautifully manicured lawns and other streets have unkempt yards and abandoned houses. There are many houses being renovated and seems to be an influx of people who wish to improve the neighborhood "
