I've lived in both suburban and urban (current) situations.

In my personal experience, I always felt for more supported and a much bigger sense of community in suburban areas. Most suburban streets I've lived on, even when they weren't in the best neighborhoods, I felt comfortable asking anyone on the block for any kind of help. I do not feel the same way in my current apartment building. We have one neighbor who refuses to walk their 120 pb German Shepard on a leash which has already attacked me and my dogs.

Shouldn't that dog have been put down already?

It's complicated, and it's SF.

Our dog has actually been attacked by another dog outside on the street and that was more straightforward.

In this situation it happened inside our building, so the city won't do anything and says we need to work with our landlord. Our landlord isn't doing anything despite our repeated asks. The neighbor in question has multiple evictions previously, etc. There just isn't much more we can do unfortunately

Is SF one of those states where you're allowed to open carry? :)
