  • Val M.
    "I lived on Park for two years and it was the worst 2 years potentially of my life. My car got broken into 7 times because I didn't have a garage to lock it in. I had children fighting in front of my house at all hours of the day adults screaming threats at each other and brandishing weapons... None of these people lived in any of the houses around mine either. there was a day my roommate and I are sitting on the porch and some kids started screaming racial slurs at us telling us to get out of his neighborhood. if one of us came home late, after midnight, there was a concern of a group of men who wanted the neighbourhood harassing women and some have said they assaulted a few as well, although my only experience was the harassment. I won't even drive through this neighborhood now if I don't have to."

    "i've lived in this neighboorhood off and on for 40 yrs. there are good, hardworking people here, but the gangs have taken over whole blocks. many of the children and teens have little respect for people or property. it is highly patrolled by crpd and yet drug dealers thumb their noses at them. you can't go thru one day without some type of disturbance needing police intervention. shootings have increased as have assaults and robberies. its an old neighborhood with lovely homes but it's not worth the aggravation, frustration and anxiety. "

    "I have lived in the neighborhood for almost 18 years and if you keep to yourself you will be fine. Most people in this area are looking to take advantage of you, it’s sad and I wish it wasn’t this way but it has been every since I moved here. And maybe it’s the whole city, I’m not sure always lived on the SE side."
