"It’s a very rural area. For the most part, properties here have a yard, so there is a space right at home for your dog - no need to try to locate dog parks or anything like that"

"This street is off of a main route with heavy traffic. There are no sidewalks, and I personally do not walk much around here because it doesn’t feel safe to walk on a road with a 55 mph speed limit, especially without sidewalks"

"We live on a main route that gets us where we need to go relatively quickly. Although we are out of the busyness of being in town, there are stores and gas stations along this man in route"
