    "I’ve lived here for almost 3 years and my husband and I love South Park. Our neighborhood is friendly, holds parties, activities and more all year round. Everyone decorated for the holidays and has get togethers. A good mix of young and old and a lot of different dogs we’ve gotten to meet walking ours in the park. "

    "South Park Historic District is one of the largest National Register historic neighborhoods in Ohio. Renovation stalled out after the 2007/2008 mortgage crisis, but renovations and sales are picking up. The neighborhood association is very active and involved in social and improvement projects. It's extremely convenient to downtown, UD, Miami Valley Hospital, Carillon Park, the Dayton Art Institute, routes 75 and 35 and the main post office. Recent development along the Brown Street corridor has attracted a huge variety of upscale quick-service restaurants and mid-range eateries. The neighborhood is definitely friendly and welcoming."

    "This is an area that is increasingly popular with young professionals and couples with young children; it attracts singles and retirees; homes are available for fixup or already refurbished. Most homes are at least 100 years old. There is entertainment within walking distance and there are neighborhood coffee houses and taverns. It is very close to the university and downtown and entertainment districts. "

    "I would like to see empty houses fixed up or torn down and lots mowed. Schools have long been an issue, but there is quality education available. Dayton as a whole is slowly rebounding and is a good place to live, especially for those on a budget. "
