The AG Park & Ride has been a frequent spot due to it's proximity to my parents' home. However, it is not a location that is really acceptable. I have had several instances of police knocking on my door, here it's at least been during the day that they have talked to me, far better than being woken up in the middle of the night.

The location is a bus stop, and therefore not quiet. It's also along side the highway, which is very noisy. The police station is also nearby, and the main route for the ambulance to get from the hospital to the highway. Sirens all through the night and day.

It's not flat, with a decline to the rear of the vehicle when parked in the angled spots opposite the highway, and sloped to the nose on the side of the highway (which the bus company doesn't want RVs on that side of the road). There is a section of parallel parking, but that is also taken up by the buses. There's usually a red semi-truck at the far end.

I've picked up trash from the grassy area where I park, several times. Always try to clean up a place that I stay.
