We plan on putting up a nice textured vinyl film, to keep light coming in and privacy from the view at the street, but also so guests don't have to look out and see grass (or snow) right in their face.The steps are not as severe as they look in the photo, but there are 14.

Consider looking into Colorado or Wyoming LLCs for additional privacy.

We also installed an artificial foliage privacy fence around the pool in the backyard and replaced the pool sand filter.

While we could not do anything about the neighborhood we could control our property (or at least try and control it) Things we've done to make the property more attractive & safer- Privacy Fences; Security Cameras; Exterior Lighting....

Built a privacy fence for both sides.
