    "The neighborhood has really been cleaned up from when l was a child. A lot of the buildings have been rehabbed and the police patrol in cars, bikes and horseback. This is a very historic area. "

    "Our neighborhood is marketed to be very nice but in reality isn’t. The homeless population is very high, I regularly come home and am hassled for change or have people sleeping in front of my gate. Pest control isn’t handled, a possum lives in the building wall next to my front door and there’s constantly trash scattered around. The demographic that this neighborhood attracts tends to be people like myself, new to the city and looking for a good deal, but anyone who has been here for longer tends to be unsavory. "

    "I commute a half hour down the turnpike to get to work. It’s not bad, but it’s not great. Morning shifts are easier, takes about 15 minutes but in heavy traffic (evening shifts) it can take upwards of 45 minutes. "
