Your response: We have a diverse amount of grocery stores (organic/more expensive, regular, low cost). I do notice a lack of public transport in my neighborhood. I don't notice many K-12 schools, and there aren't any universities in my area either. There are a couple public parks near me but unfortunately there is a lack of dog parks. The public libraries are relatively far from me. We have a variety of large and small places of worship for different denominations. We have a pretty good amount of urgent cares but hospitals are a bit further away.
