    "Dogs seem to be welcomed. But many dog OWNERS do not pick up after their dogs. This makes our neighborhood dirty. It also makes walks less enjoyable for everyone. It also opens up the chances to spread disease to other dogs. "

    "This neighborhood is convenient to major thoroughfares and is centrally located. The half north of Pima is nicer than the half south of Pima, which can be sketchy. "

    "The neighborhood has nice pockets and a lot of sketchy areas. It could be nice but a lot of transient criminal types wander through and some properties are not well-kept. Vacant lots are not maintained and the city doesn’t take good care of the landscaping in the streets. "

    "I never see many kids, if any, as I explore the neighborhood. I’m not sure what that might mean for other parents?"

    "people walk dogs around here not many sidewalks though. you have to walk in the street. people driving by are respectful of you walking your dog and they will slow down and go around you. "

    "Area is okay, lots of trash on the corners, people just leave garbage on the street for others to dig through. It's not a bad neighborhood close to stores, restaurants and work places. "

    "The neighborhood is not very attractive. Being bordered by Alvernon and Speedway means that a lot of random sketchy people could be walking through the neighborhood at any time. Not really walkable to anything I want to do like eat out, shop etc. "

    "Older part of town, rustic looking homes, some employed residents and some people seem transient. I don't have anything else to add."

    "This neighborhood is in transition from the original owners who bought new in the 1960's to new owners now. Very close to shopping and medical centers. Great pet friendly walled back yard. All doors and windows have well made and attractive metal covings for safety."
