    "No comment. If I can’t say anything good I won’t say anything. I have very little problems here. We have renters here and they are noisy, not all but some. All hours of the nite"

    "Our neighborhood isn’t really unique. We live here because it’s a family home that we don’t want to have sitting vacant. This is a bad area, there are shootings in front of our house too often to stay. "
