There are a few up and coming neighborhoods near the Copley road/downtown area where a developer is building new inner city homes just north of the zoo.

It's a social expectation in Minnesota that there is jogging/walking trails, ample sidewalks, well lit streets, playgrounds and parks in EVERY neighborhood, free zoo's, free beaches galore.......There is a reason why Minnesota is a TOP tourism state, and Minnesota invests wisely into it very heavily. 

100% nightmare tenant that will likely get surprise roommates and a zoo of unauthorized pets while they live there and then claim "oh I didn't know that was against the rules".

In Akron, there are 'A' properties in 'D-' neighborhoods (over by the zoo) where builders build affordable housing.

Families: "Spacious backyard, kids’ play area, and just minutes from the local zoo."

Or did they crash into a zoo full of endangered species?

Highlights were the USS Midway Museum, The San Diego Zoo Safari Park and of course the beach (Encinitas).

Having a pet isn't such a big deal but when 5 people all bring their cats/dogs the place turns into a zoo. 

I can say that I was not present for almost an entire year with my kiddos... but I can now take them to school, take off a wednesday and make it a zoo day as well as many other cool perks.

There are a few highly rated HipCamp hosts in our area that have 'U-Pick' farms of produce and/or petting zoo type animals, and they've added a handful of RV sites to go along with it.
