    "some blocks are tragically blighted, others are like Cedar Park, others are like Elmwood Park & some are more like Cobbs Creek. A lot of blocks are run down & bleak looking & some are nice . It's a mixture of gritty urban decay, tragic, industrial, and standard urban work class pre-war. There's parks & lots of trolleys & cheap grocery stores in the cut. It's a mixed vibe "

    "There used to be a special neighborhood. neighbors were neighborly, they look out for one another, clean the streets together, share special dish of food, a d nosey, which worked in out neighborhood. Some neighbors are watching everything and keep you abreast as to what going on. Now, the young people don't care or just ignorant about family cultures because too many broken families, babies raising babies and they are just a lost generation to care about any neighborhood. "
