    "Lots of other dog families, close to large open field by the library and enrichment center, some sidewalks down Battle. Dislikes: lots of traffic and speeding on battle, houses close to the road, closest dog park would be Pinkerton Park or Harlinsdale"

    "This location is nearly perfect for any lifestyle. There is numerous venues for shopping, dining and entertainment mostly within a 5-10 minutes car ride and its only 30 minutes for all Nashville has to offer. The schools are top rated in the US every year. There are numerous well maintained parks nearby, including two dog parks that dogs can run freely inside a designated area. The community events in Franklin and surrounding areas seem to be never ending and they are very creative and diverse, There are too many churches of every denomination to even list a number. There are around 3-4 live show theaters in Franklin alone and others nearby. People walk and jog through the neighborhoods on a regular basis and there are other fitness locations such as rock climbing, yoga and martial arts studios everywhere. "

    "Moved into this area a little over a year ago. I was a first time home buyer and have fallen in love with the area! I plan on staying in the area for many years to come and eventually raise a family here. The people are just so nice! Also, its very convenient living so close to the charming downtown Historic Franklin. Not to mention I am only 2 minutes from The Factory which is a wonderful shopping district that features many wonderful stores, restaurants, weekly farmers market, and much more! Overall I think this is a great area for first time home buyer or the family looking for a area to call home. "
