"It’s fair to say there are probably better neighborhoods for families with young children. However, I really enjoyed raising my son here. There are a couple of nice parks within a walking distance with a designated play area for children. My son was able to walk to preschool, elementary and middle school, which is not common in the United States. As a teenager, he still hangs out with his childhood friends who also grew up here."

"I walk to work 4 blocks always looking down to avoid feces and needles. It’s grimy and very very dirty. It’s so sad how this city has become. It is the most expensive place to live in the entire world, yet it’s the most unsanitary place to walk. If you do not smell it I’m one block, you’re guaranteed to smell it on the next block: urine, feces, or someone/and or a group of homeless sitting down in plain site shooting up and getting high. It’s just nasty and wrong. We pay too much rent to walk out of our apartments , houses , condos or studios and smell stench with in the first few steps on the sidewaLk. "

"I've lived here for 7 years and it is just the right mix of big city and not so huge city life. My gym and the park are a block away. The bookstore and coffee shop are on my block. The cinema, ballet, symphony, civic center and more are about one to two blocks. The Opera Plaza Condo complex is so nice - big plaza with water fountain - very friendly area. Walgreens is just two blocks away. I'm on the bus line. It is so nice here and they are putting in a CVS across the street. Nice walking areas with the big classic architecture all around. "
