    "People walk their dogs and people rarely hold dog owners accountable for cleaning up after their dogs; so if you’re a lazy dog owner who doesn’t care about other people’s space you’re in luck. "

    "While we are new to this neighborhood, we’ve enjoyed getting to know our neighbors in a relatively short period of time. It’s a mix of older couples who were once the “new families” and have been here for 30+ years, and us new families just arriving. Love the safe, homey feel. "
