      "Wasilla is a large space. Depending on where in this city you live, depends on how close or far your neighbor could be from your home. Dogs in our neighborhood for the most part are quiet, and people clean up after their dogs - most of the time. Lots of space in our neighborhood to walk, it’s considered rural so no sidewalks but very little traffic "
