    "It’s a good neighborhood I liked growing up here but I plan on moving out of Rock Island for a reason. A lot of people here can be belligerent drunks and the fact that save more now sells alcohol has only made that worse. I use to walk there alone as a kid before but I wouldn’t dare do that now even as a grown adult I won’t walk there alone at night."
