    "It can be a little sketchy at night, being so close to downtown. A lot of homeless around the gas stations, but other than the common vagrant, there isn't much to worry about besides the occasional drunk driver which San Antonio has had a problem with in general. Safe neighborhood, good schools, great distance between three major highways. "

    "Excellent central location; about a mile to the San Antonio River and less than 2 to the River Walk.Easy access to highways. Beautiful historic district with lovely homes. Always see people out walking! Parochial/private schools may be the best in town; public schools are more average. Excellent restaurants are in walking distance. Active community. Excellent public transit (bus). Several B & Bs in neighborhood. Wonderful mix of palatial estates, beautiful historic homes of varied architecture, modest well-kept single family homes, cottages, as well as some multifamily homes. Many have great yards for children. Singles often live in large carriage house apartments and enjoy easy access to downtown. Many retirees live here and enjoy walking the safe streets."
