    "It's a good neighborhood to walk the dogs in low crime also Walking helps build strong bones and muscles, which can help prevent injuries. It can also help with weight management, as being overweight can lead to serious health problems for dogs. "

    "It's a horrible neighborhood. Dirty, loud, violent. Police don't respond to quality of life crimes: loud music, drug dealing, loitering, open marijuana smoking. Eateries are of low qualities. Neighborhood should be burnt to the ground. "

    "Like most areas in Philadelphia, Germantown is starting to see gentrification. People love the older Victorian style homes that are one of a kind. I've been here now for close to 10 years and the area is definitely seeing new capital investments, in [structures & wonderful people]."

    "I've lived in this neighborhood for 5 years. We have alot of good things here such as neighborhood, pubic transportation routes via Septa. Nights some blocks are well lit little hidden blocks may not be . Wister street is horrible from metal plates and the street is just jacked up... It gets hot sometimes around these areas it has peak seasons neighbors are all lind they speak. we have alot of abandoned cats in the area some pitbulls. wouldn't trade the diversity for anything...
