    "No sidewalks, cars zip by you dangerously, and pay no heed to stop signs….as you walk your dog through the neighborhood, you’ll notice many other dogs that are stuck in the backyard. That never gets a walk, some never come inside the house…."

    "While Frankfort has beautiful scenery you won’t find anywhere else, that and lower cost of living are the only positives I’ve found since living here. I’m originally from Versailles (which doesn’t have a Walmart), and I feel like that says a lot. My area constantly smells like sewage due to the little creek nearby. It’s very noisy almost all day between sirens every hour, people setting off their own car alarms every time they go to their car, fireworks and gunshots (yep, uh huh), and college students. "

    "The subsidized housing is behind this neighborhood. Therefore, they jump the fence and walk through Crestwood. This has led to multiple thefts/break-ins/stolen property. Luckily we’re just renting. The neighbors are wonderful people. It’s the foot traffic that’s the issue. "
