i have looked into many areas... oakland is strange... you can have a good area where there are mostly single family homes, then you go 5 or 6 blocks, and it's much rougher. condo would be safer, but as it's on a major road, you'd rarely see and talk to neighbors. The only area where it's clearly defined, is the oakland hills where the rich live. Oakland has several crime data web sites, and I make use of them. Mag

With the house i'd have to make sure the back was escape proof, and keep them out of the front. the front is actually far enough from the street that it's be a good area for a ramp without blocking
> my driveway! But I can't even think abt the house until my agent finds out what's in the garage. Sect. 8 will not let me have a mother-in-law quarters, and I understand that. anyhow i look forward to being able to get a puppy! if i get a condo, it'll need to be small, if i get that house, i'd love to get a mid-size no-more-than-30 lb dog (like my sweet sugar, who was part britany spaniel, and part border collie.
