    "Simple, though kind of indirect. It’s easy to get to major spots, but might take catching a couple different buses or walking to get from point a to b."
  • Aaron
    "yes, you see dog walkers frequently in my neighborhood. it is also common for neighbors to know each other's dogs"
  • Tsinger1959@gmail.com
    "I just want too move to the country. I hate living in lima. neighbors are to close and to much crime. "
  • Pete P.
    "I have lived here in the Sharon Park division of America Township for 20 years. It was a great place to raise a family and the Shawnee school system is consistently ranked one of the best in the State of Ohio. "
  • Kayla M.
    "in my neighborhood not much goes on. maybe a 4th of July party but other than that nothing maybe a little shooting here and there but its simple hete."
  • Lynne W.
    "Some ‘dog-walkers’ carry a ‘poop’ sack w/then when they walk their dogs in the neighborhood (which is great)! Other people let their dogs ‘poop’ in people’s yards & are too lazy to ‘clean up the mess!! Nobody likes ‘stepping’ in a pile of ‘dog poop’! Yuck!! 😆👎"
  • Jmcph61
    "I live around family and just down the street is where I grew up. I still have friends living here so it’s a quiet neighborhood and I feel safe here"

    "This is a wonderful area to live in. Close to church, schools, shopping and restuarants. "
  • lizard45801
    "My husband & i have lived here 4 years. We've had very little problems. The house is great. Most of our neighbors are social. They have looked out for us since we've lived here. The only problems are: we have no stores that are really close for those who have to walk or ride a bus. Although, we do have a nice carry out on Vine St. & Saint Johns. Also, there's a gas station close on Saint Johns that's convienant. There are 3 close schools. I feel safe in letting my grand kid play in the yard. Our neighborhood is safe & friendly. We can have cook outs & lots of fun. We sit by the fire at night in the summer & listen to music. Won't you be my neighbor?"
  • Cullen C.
    "This is a very community oriented area in a fast improving and upcoming community in one of the untapped gems of the Lima/Allen county area of OH. Great value. Hidden Gem."
  • Annmelissa_7
    "My husband and I have lived a lot of places all over the country. Living in Bath Township has been amongst our favorite places to live. It's quiet, friendly, safe, and open. We have appreciated the solid educational foundation the schools have given to our children, and the community itself seems to care about our children. Even though we are not from Bath, we have loved living here."
  • Tmneu
    "Low traffic, great for children!"
