    "I've lived in this area for over 10 years and I have seen the progress, clean up and expansion of the neighborhoods and businesses. At the beginning there were issues with car break ins but has decreased due to police driving through neighborhoods keeping an eye on the community... Thank You for that!.. "

    "Most businesses are pet friendly and there are always people walking their dogs around. People are friendly in passing and always stop to pick up trash or aide someone who is in some sort of distress "

    "For dog owners, it’s very safe to walk them at night. Usually very well lit and police are around every so often. Trash cans available all over for cleaning up after your dog. Only thing that can be an issue is the sidewalks are a bit skinny if you have a dog who maybe isn’t the most dog friendly. I can imagine that would pose a problem as I’ve had to walk in the street to avoid a barking dog more than once. Never had an issue, though. Owners all do a great job of controlling their furry friends. "
