    "Schools are good all walking distance from each other and surrounding neighborhoods. 2 grocery stores close. As of lately an overwhelming presence of police when they could be on the other side of town where it needed. Borderline harassment when daughter walks our dog and police drive by and blind her by shining white lights at her. Unacceptable."
