Dog-friendly places in Berea?

We have two kids and The unemployment rate is 3.9%, which is pretty low. Crime rate is something to consider -Berea sits at 48.5 per 100K. Household incomes average around $71,896 in Berea. With a population of 18,330, Berea is a small town. It's not perfect, but the community is solid. Public transit needs a lot of work honestly. Property taxes are high but you get good services. Thoughts? There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. Traffic can be rough during rush hour, no sugarcoating that.

Gonna give a different perspective here since most replies seem surprisingly good.

I've been here 12 years and it's improved dramatically in recent years. The thing nobody mentions is housing market. It's stable and it affects daily life more than you'd think.

That said, the community vibe is legit. And if you're into photography, this place is pretty good.

Neighborhood matters A LOT here. The Riverside side vs the East side are basically different cities. Make sure you visit both before deciding.

Would recommend to anyone considering it..
