    "So convenient to all amenities. Condoville - not a plus. Barton Springs, Zilker Park the best things about it. Hillsigh and lack of public transportation access real negative. I live 5 blocks from the park, but can’t get there because of steep hill. Sucks! . "

    "There are sidewalks on the main roads, and lots of people in the area have pets. Plus you’re very close to Zilker Park, which is perfect for some off-leash play time. It is a busy area though, so be careful not to let your pup get loose (especially if he/she is a runner!). "
