POLL: Quality Of Life In Lynnfield

From time to time, Lynnfield Patch will ask readers to weigh in via an online poll about local matters.

 

In general, Lynnfield is a town that enjoys a high quality of life - in good measure because of a strong community spirit, general demographics, and a great school system. But that said, every place has local issues to address - and some of them seem to stay around for decades when it comes to small towns.

So with that, here's a list of some of the quality of life issues that readers of Lynnfield Patch have commented on or otherwise shown interest in over time.

The question is this - if you yourself could with a simple wave of the hand improve just one thing about Lynnfield, what would it be?

Also - not every answer fits neatly into a poll question. So if you've got another observation or issue to raise, feel free to share it below in the comment box!

The town looses thousands of dollars weekly in revenue on Walnut Street by not writing enough tickets on banned truck traffic and speeding cars that use Walnut Street. The issue of illegal trucks and speeding cars is getting worse by the day.

Dog fouling is out of control in this town....I agree Ellen. Dog walkers got to show more respect for the community and especially our health. I also agree with Mr. Yurkus on speeding cars throughout our neighborhood...way out of control...town needs to do more to control our health and safety. Great point guys!!!
