    "come to know others dogs by name. It's a great place to live. We have been here three years now. On the negative side, we could use more transit in the area."

    "This neighborhood is very friendly and nice; everyone is always walking their dogs. The only downside is it’s a bit loud because of Koenig but it’s definitely not the noisiest of austin neighborhoods. Overall the neighborhood is safe as well, wouldn’t walk at night but that’s just because there aren’t many streetlights!"

    "I see people walking their dogs around all the time! And a lot of the nearby restaurants and bars are outdoor-dog-friendly. There are so many places to walk your dogs—a lot of trails, open fields, and parks. I'm not sure if there is a designated dog park nearby, though, and not all of the neighborhood streets have sidewalks."

The North Loop Ave drag is amazing, with all its shops, restaurants, and bars. There are so many people out and about strolling up and down North Loop all the way from Lamar."

The age demographics are very mixed, from older college/grad students to families. It's about an eight-minute drive to two different H-E-B groceries or to the Wheatsville co-op, which has organic/specialty groceries."

    "I'm not sure why anyone would say there are sketchy areas near here - Austin is an incredibly safe city. This area is also next to one of the better high schools in Austin (none of the public high schools are particularly terrific). There is also a fair amount of stuff on North Loop, which is nice and I imagine that Highland Mall will eventually be developed thus making this area very desirable. The only downside is that the closest grocery store is one of the less nice ones and it's not all that close."
