Hey welcome, soon-to-be new resident!

For the dog walking part, I can attest that we have lots of lovely parks in the area for exercising your pup. We als have an off-leash dog park that I think is kind of 'meh', but there are lots of lovely natural places.

As for other things: we have more restaurants/fast food places than you could swing a dead cat at, we all drive like madmen, and about 78% of the population is pretty nice.

Good luck in your move and I hope you like it here.

Watch out for ticks and chiggers in warmer months. Lots of great bike/walking trails. Google the greenway trail system.

Speaking of which, I love to get out in nature, but since moving here I've always heard about the ticks non-stop. Anyone know of a sure fire way to dissuade them from forming an attachment with my body (non-deet)? I suppose if someone did they'd be a millionaire. Thanks in advance.
