    "Decent neighborhood. Some suspicious activity in surrounding neighborhoods as seen on the ring app. But pretty good overall. Lots of schools nearby so there’s usually kids out and playing. Friendly neighbors for the most part and a couple of shopping centers within 10 minutes. Can’t complain :) "

    "In the area which I live, Hillsdale near I-80, which technically borders on North Highlands the streets are busy, dirty, littered with trash etc. There is only one major park in the area (Robert Frost Park) and I’ve nears many people let their dogs run off-lease here. I personally never walk my dog in this neighborhood, which is sad. Fortunately; he’s little and old and has a good sized yard to run around in so he gets enough exercise. But I’d like to feel like walking him in my neighborhood would be safe and pleasant, but honestly I don’t."

    "My family own our home since 1952 it use to be veteran neighbourhood but now there is nothing but crack heads and trailer trash. The neighborhood changed a lot. now we hope there is more proud homeowners and no more renters. People who rent here devalue the homes. But maybe the Bay area people start to come and change this place for the better."
