    "There’s not much that would pose a problem for a dog owner, some streets are more industrial than others, but generally it’s a nice area and continues to improve :) There are a ton of parks around and dogs too! ...some owners don’t pick up after their dogs..but I haven’t seen these particular people for a while so maybe they moved away. It’s the same as any other town...some people are respectful, some aren’t! 🤣"

  • Ivorybwise
    "I think dog owners will be fine, I think neighbors will be annoyed with how many dog owners don’t pick up after their dogs. I have a dog and a lot of dog owners in this area walk their dogs on streets they don’t live on without bags to clean up after their dogs. "
  • Hadjam s.
    "I do not plan on staying here. It is always dirty, people don’t respect the environment. Some crossroads needs lights to able walkers to cross. People drive too fast. "

    "the latin festival and Italian festival that we have every summer.they have food and entertainment along with carnival rides for the kids."
  • Amber
    "It doesn’t make the community quite special, but it was the first time they had an event at a park that was just built on High Street. Where they had rides and games for the kids. It was pretty interesting, and even tho it rained, i believe the kids of the neighborhood really had an blast."
  • danielle m.
    "It has historic homes and a centralized location. Orange is an up and coming vibrant neighborhood. The homes are less expansive than South Orange and West Orange however living in Seven Oaks, you get to enjoy the best of both. "
