    "My road is a busy road and if the dog runs away it's kind of dangerous. Walking with dogs always on a leash it is the best and safe option for our dogs. "

    "There is no public transportation. You need a car or a bike for local travel. It’s a nice community where people care for and upkeep their homes and yards. It’s quintessential Cape Cod but not everyone is friendly. "
