    "Slaughter farm on corner and directly above it, no water, packs of coyote possible mountain lions occasionally, Russian Kangel dogs [look them up] next door. Neighbors have 2000 strangers over each year for biz. 5 acres of poison oaks, Neighbors very noisey all night long with farm animals cost 1000's of dollars to remove a tree. house might have to be 50 feet away from 100's of barn animals."

    "There is a marvelous community volunteer effort here. We have a grange, club for adults, for kids and a volunteer library. We have a cultural center, a farmers market, and nationally famous sausage and meat. It's quiet and unique here. Picture apple orchards meet the redwoods. I adore my neighbors and my sense of safety and the peace."
