    "I’m a huge dog lover and dog owner. I’m also a real estate agent in the area and specialize in finding areas that your dog will live too. I live in downtown Fort Lauderdale on Las Olas Blvd and there are tons of dog owners. I love walking my dog and chatting with other dog owners alike while doing walks. No matter what route I take my dog enjoys the scenery, smells and fellow walkers."

    "It’s on the River with many beautiful boats docked or either going by. There’s a water trolley that you can take to go up and down the river. It’s close to a Main Street with many shops a restaurants. The location is perfect but can be somewhat noisy. All ages life in my area but there are too many dogs. "

    "A charming neighborhood whose dynamic is changing due to the tearing down of existing structures and building super modern townhouses that few can afford. "

    "My children are grown so I don’t know much about the school system but given the neighborhood demographics I think the public schools are probably pretty good. There are several private schools (Catholic) in the area that I believe are very popular. "

    "Great mix of housing types & people. However too many cottages are being torn down by investors who are building million dollar + homes and townhouses. "
