    "I lived in the neighborhood for 20 years. Not once did anyone try to break in. My children played with other kids. Parents communicated with each other. Grocery stores are far and the public transportation is convenient. Some kids walk to school, two elementary schools and two middle schools around the area. There’s a farmer’s market in summer and fall too."

    "Lived here nearly 20 years. Ready to sell or rent and move on. For a city neighborhood, it is safe. For a city neighborhood. Easy access to public transportation, biking is ok most of year. Parking has become contentious in past few years. The diversity that made neighborhood vibrant and interesting is fading as rents go up and long-time families and unique businesses are pushed out. Too many shoddy renovations/rehabs and 'luxury' multi-units going up that will become slummy in about 10 years."
