Quiet place to live. But lots and lots of unsupervised children at all times and pets allowed to roam freely no leashes / collars

First let me say Gail the property manager is very unprofessional. I can't wait to see her response to this as she is very combative. I tried all day to be nice to her then when I finally say forget it your obviously not doing your job I'll be happy to tell your boss, I get attempted insults. ( ps: Boss if you want to see all the texts I've got them ) We were going to buy a mobile home to flip there. She said twice on 2 diff. Days she would call me, and did not. She hung up when I called , supposedly had bad signal. Then when I decided I did not want to deal with management like that and texted her to tell her I didn't appritiate her lack of professional skills she went on to say I dont sign her check and I should watch what I say to people I want somthing from ( because she is totally in the power to deny me because of what I say ) and to that of course is one thing... Discrimination . So even if I had decided to purchase said property did I just hear you would tell me no because you said you didn't like the foot we got off on ???? Hmmmm pretty sure you can NOT discriminate against someone because you dont like them. ( that may be against the law? Just saying ... ) oh yeah and I'm the bad guy for expressing my thoughts to her lying to is ( twice ) ok :) Now to end it all. I have no problem with the park... only spent 5 mins there. I do however think that if you tell someone somthing multiple times you should do it. Gail did not. Too bad we could have fixed up all them empty mobile homes out there for you. Would have been a nice deal.
