    "Amazing, family-friendly, community that feels tucked away from the hustle/bustle of the city. Warm, welcoming neighbors filled with kids and dogs. Great neighborhood hang spots and places to eat as well as an array of shopping. Very central to the city with easy access to transportation options. 5 minute bike from the Salt Shed music venue as well!"

    "Sketchy, always delayed, dirty and crowded.. I’ve seen things on the blue line no one should ever have to witness (especially before 8am). 0/10 would recommend but it’s the cheapest and quickest way to get to the loop. Lots of folks are always hanging around the stops, and I’ve stepped off the train a few times only to find myself in the middle of a crime scene. Literally.. a crime scene. "

    "dog owners would really like the area because it is safe, friendly and clean. It seems like the majority of the people who live here are responsible and care about their neighborhood. It also has many places specific to people who like to run or walk and even bike. "
