    "The Annex is the conjunction of New Haven, East Haven, and Branford. There is easy on/off access to I-95/91 and access to Downtown New Haven. There are plenty of stores and restaurants nearby. Although the area has great potential, in my experience the neighborhood and neighbors have not been great at all. "
