    "I have lived in this neighborhood for 7 years. I think of some neighbors as friends we help each other out. While there is a lot of crime and it tends to be dangerous. It would be a nice place if the city invested more and if the police didn’t avoid patrolling around here "

    "This really isn’t a good neighborhood to live in. It didn’t use to be this bad but the crime is horrible there’s no police presence so the stores and gas stations always get robbed and the city of akron does nothing to help this neighborhood. Summit county the county where the neighborhood is doesn’t do anything to help anyone. There are very little programs yet poverty everywhere. You wanna limit crime ease the poverty and add more police presence. That’s why nice neighborhoods are nice they have police and city investments "
