    "Downtown chambersburg isn’t the best place for dogs. I really don’t know what else to say. Guilford township, fayetteville, warm spring road area, Saint Thomas, basically those outer areas are better for dog owners. I wouldn’t walk my dog in the borough. Nowhere for the dog to poop or pee."

    "The neighborhood is very nice. The people are friendly, can be noisy sometimes. A con for me is when the neighbors and their kids walk through my yard or the side of my house, I’m on an end unit. Another con when people park in front of your house to visit someone a few houses down and there’s parking in the back! Then your guests or you can’t park near your house. A pro is I do feel safe here there’s hardly if at all any activity. There’s good schools here! Good area to start a family or retire to. "
