    "No real issues. Not as much public trash cans to throw bags away on walks. Sometimes people’s dogs bark as we walk by, but I don’t have much of an issue with that. "

    "I have lived in the neighborhood for 16 years. Pros: relatively quiet, close to bus lines, several nice parks nearby, lots of shopping options and both I-5 and 512 close. Cons: no consistent sidewalks, wouldn't leave valuables in vehicles, poor school ratings, litter, transients and prostitutes. Personally, we have never had any problems but I know some of my neighbors have. "
