"Dog owners like the spacious yards and safe spaces to walk in and around the neighborhood. Dog friendly and safe, very calm neighborhood, almost everyone owns a dog and likes dogs. The cons, I would say almost everyone is very doubtful and not as friendly. Everyone is just selfish in a certain way. Pretty safe neighborhood gotta say."
