    "The yards on my block are spacious enough for a medium sized dog. There are plenty of places to walk a dog for exercise and an actual dog park within half a mile."

    "Dog owners would love Broad Ripple Park because it has a big fenced in area for dogs. They would not like the fact that not every street has sidewalks and some streets such as Westfield Blvd are only 2 lanes but have a high speed limit of 35mph."

    "North side traffic is a nightmare unlike any other. There is extensive construction going on for the Red Line project and dedicated bus lanes that will make traffic worse in the fall. "

  • I miss Broad Ripple
    "it should take about 2 minutes. because of taking car lanes away in favor of bus lanes and bike lanes, it takes 10-12 minutes and I have to drive 6 or 8 blocks out of my way. Broad Ripple was such a nice place 15 years when I moved here. now I can't wait to move. "

  • sorry, not riding a bus
    "torture, the red line sucks. first they take away two car lanes from 62nd St. and replace them with bike lanes that are rarely ever used. Then they create a busline that will never be used enough to justify the cost or the businesses that closed. "

    "I have lived in Broad Ripple for the last 6 years and don't know if I will ever leave it. The neighborhood is amazingly walkable for Indianapolis. There are tons of shops, restaurants, bars, and clubs within an easy walk or short $5 cab ride. The area is also super dog friendly! Most places with outdoor seating allow dogs and even some of the shops. Plus, there is a great dog park at the local city park. The park also has a great (and affordable) pool, picnic areas, fitness classes, and it has been known to host many festivals. Broad Ripple also has a great neighborhood vibe. It is the kind of place where people look out for their neighbors and wouldn't feel silly asking for a cup of sugar. The Broad Ripple Village Association is also very involved with making sure the area retains its character and doesn't get too built up. All in all, this is a very desirable neighborhood in Indianapolis. "
