    "There is good bus service that goes downtown from Hyde Park. Traffic is bad here so even though Hyde Park is close to downtown, it might take 20 or more minutes to go 4 miles"

    "There's not any place to take your dog, but there's plenty of room on side streets for walking them on a leash. Most everyone has yards with some space for their pets. Most the pets here are friendly so having a mean type of guard dog would be out of place, but it would be ok if it stayed in the yard. Just know that it will bark all the time because there's lots of foot traffic."

    "Many people who live here are UT professors. The commute to UT could be a bike ride or a walk or a bus ride. Driving isn't worth it, since parking is such a hassle on campus. For those who work downtown, the commute is ridiculously easy. No need to even get on the highway."

    "Hyde Park is the heart of Austin, in my opinion. The streets are beautiful, lined with old trees and charming houses. The energy is great because it is a mix of UT students, young professionals, and families. It is in a central location with easily access to all of Austin."

    "This neighborhood is really unique because it's an old part of Austin with really funky small homes. Each house has character, which you don't find in areas with newer construction. There are lots of restaurants and shops here that give it a really cool laid-back vibe."

    "It's an old Austin neighborhood with a lot of Austin charm. I love that it is within walking distance to great Austin institutions like Quack's, Vino Vino, and Mothers. I love swimming at Shipe pool during the summer, and I also love the wine events at Vino VIno, like Bubble Fest. Mondo gallery has great exhibits and cool opening-night events."

    "This neighborhood is family friendly however some streets have small or no sidewalks. But we do have tennis courts and a basketball court. Hyde Park feeds into decent schools, but most parents try to get their kids into magnet schools. Overall this neighborhood is very safe."
