    "There’s trash everywhere and the dog owners need to clean up after their pets. The neighborhood can be cleaner and the sidewalks are mess up"

    "Occasionally the local ymca will have something typically around the back to school time. After that no community events happen which is probably best since there is so much violence and speeding down residential streets with a school on the block "
