    "A lot of people leave their dogs outside to bark and bark for hours. Children scream the entire time they’re playing outside. Sometimes they come into your yard as no one has taught them to respect privacy and property. The houses are about an inch apart from each other giving no privacy unless you build a privacy fence around your entire property. Houses are overpriced for the area considering everything I noted above. If you like screaming children and dogs barking, or maybe you would like to contribute to the annoyance, Mishawaka is for you.
