    "It’s a dog friendly area. Most of the homes on the neighborhood has a minimum of at least one dog. You can walk your dog in the area and your children can ride their bikes in the neighborhood as well. The neighborhood is nice and the neighbors speak to one another as often as they can. Some of the neighborhood children even go to the same school or may even be in the same classroom depending of grade level. Also the schools within the area are good as well. "
