  • Katty N.
    "I guess its nice that there are state parks in the area where you could take your dogs to spend some quiet time, go on walks, and get some fresh air. The East side is my preferred part of Akron; However, having said that, just be careful that you pay close attention to which part of East Akron you are in— If you end up in the wrong area, you may be looking at a situation where you'd want to keep a closer eye on your dog, for example. Also, keep in mind, Akron isn't very rural, so you'll have plenty of somewhat busy, to very busy streets all around you... If you've got a dog that likes to get loose, you may want to take precautions to avoid any dangerous accidents."
  • Patricia F.
    "We keep watch, nothing doesn’t get unnoticed, it’s a kid and pet friendly neighborhood, always looking out for the safety of all kids playing, and pets safety during the hot and cold weather season . Neighbors very friendly and very honest, they’ll tell it to you straight, if something is of concern."
  • Patricia F.
