    "Lots of people let their dogs out without tie out measures. I see people from other neighborhoods walk their dogs through our neighborhood. Not sure why Trulia is so concerned about this neghborhood being safe for DOGS more then being safe for PEOPLE. "

    "Milwood is a great place to raise a family or live as a single person! It is pet and animal friendly. There are great schools in the area! Safe and comfortable. Easy to get downtown to Kalamazoo and not far from Portage shopping either!"

    "Milwood is a neighborhood for all! First time home buyers either with or without kids, older generations to downsize and still want to be apart of a community. My kids who are elementary age love to ride their bikes in the summer. Also, a lot of neighbors help plow in the winter. The location is perfect. Close to downtown Kalamazoo,shopping in Portage, and the I-94 for getting anywhere else you want to go fast."

    "Kid and pet friendly. Milwood is a stable and well established neighborhood! Friendly people and we all help each other. Deer, turkeys and squirrels are a few of the domestic wildlife you will see. It is an older area but young, old, children, teens... all ages are in this great area."

    "Good people, mostly. Every house is different. I live on Homecrest Circle and it is a great little community. I love the Mexican restaurants and how Milwood is like its own little town. "

    "I live here and it is close to a small shopping center for food and essentials, close to schools, gas stations, banks, there is a linear park at the end of the block to exercise your dog, take a walk. Major highway close by if you're going East to Chicago or West to Detroit. Crime statistics low for this neighborhood."
