    "Ames has a great downtown with Farmers Market and events sorting thru fall. Great outdoors trails and parks used year round by ISU students and residents."
  • Marcia B.
    "Many, many dog owners and lovers in the neighborhood. Dog walking is a common, daily activity for most of these people. Even non dog owners seem to like to see the dogs out and about. Owners are conscientious about picking up after their pets."

  • Emma D.

  • Tbaccam2017
    "It’s nice and quiet. Kept clean and looking really good. Other wise I would definitely recommend people to live in Ames."

  • Corgi girl
    "It's a dog friendly neighborhood, but it's also by two busy streets. my biggest qualm is that people dont pick up their trash and sometimes their dog's poop."
  • Cormier
    "Very cute area and safe if the ball runs into the road. People are sweet and helpful. But if you’re a city person, this is not for you! "
  • Scott N.
    "Turn of the last Century charm! Quite! Walk to stores, churches, events, restaurant! Dog walking is big here! Bike and skateboard friendly! Hoot Owls, Birds, Squirrels, Rabbits, Raccoons, Possums. Trees tons of ground cover plants. Shade!!!!"

  • Brandon.b7364
