    "North Alton area has a lot of charm. Most homes are old. Feels safe, everyone is friendly. Lived in this area 20 years. Raised my children here. School system was sufficient when my kids attended. Great school spirit. Overall decent place to live. And if you’re single, the downtown Alton nightlife is just a few blocks away."

    "This is a beautiful neighborhood with a lot of diversity. It has character and old fashion appeal. Large homes, duplex and apartments with its originality. The community has survived the worst although the love and spirit of the city is here. Perfectly located in the middle of everything, the smell of Fast Eddies Chicken or fried rice from the Hong Kong house decorates the air. I love it here, it’s safe with the beautiful mixture of people from all walks of life. Like with any city this area has its flaws, yet the flaws is what makes the beauty of it all!"
