    "Traffic is terrible. Drivers are terrible. Only one bus covers the area and the drivers are also terrible! Tons of coyotes in the area that will stalk u on a night walk. LOTS of police activity including helicopters and loud speakers at midnight or later! "

    "Every dog I’ve met is super friendly and most owners are very good about keeping them leashes for everyone’s safety HOWEVER! it’s VERY common for owners to not pick up after their dogs even with the numerous public use trash cans AND the few provided poo bag stations found here and there…. "

    "great to live here. quiet and close to all the necessary markets, retail, shopping centers, gas stations, restaurants, hospitals, freeways, car dealerships, schools, university, and parks. also, low crime rate and police presence. Thar community is peaceful and feels safe. I like the location to the beaches, the mountains, the desert, and San Diego and Orange county. The best kept secret. "

    "Plenty of dog owners here. It’s nice to walk around the shopping center. there is a local dog groomer that is priced well, they leave water outside to passers by, and the apartment complexes nearby keep their grounds well. We have two small pugs and they enjoy the area. There is a large park called andulka, just down the street that is a couple blocks long, and they usually host special events there. "

    "There’s a huge park that your dog can run around on and we’re really close to Sycamore Canyon where a lot of people take their dogs hiking. It’s not unusual to see neighbors walking their dogs around the neighborhood at any hour of the day/night and there’s a cute little pet shop in the town center."
