    "Unsafe. None the women feel safe to walk their dogs here. I don’t know the community guidelines it would be whatever the city is, but that doesn’t matter. You should be asking what the yards look like and the neighbors stop and glare at you as a women. I have my HS daughter jump in the car before anyone can see her due to unsafe feeling we have had to call the police twice one was just the other day a guy trying to break in. I am a single mother with 2 children. I would rather dogs be running around"
