    "Like: plenty of dogs to keep your dog engaged and socialized. Dislike: most dog owners do not pick up after their dogs. Occasionally may encounter an aggressive dog. Make sure your dog is leashed at all times. Building owners do not put down dog friendly ice melt. "

    "In the summertime every year, we have the Italian festival the church and the neighborhood also has a yearly festival with the mother Saint. We also have carnivals so they block off the streets so the kids can come and enjoy themselves as well as the family people come from all over to enjoy the festivities and the neighborhood The streets are closed. There is a lot of cops in the neighborhood to make the area safe during the festivities and some move the festivities to Jefferson Park, which is only two blocks away. The neighborhood is changing for the better and it’s growing. it is a safe neighborhood to live. The people are always smiling very polite supermarkets and family owned. Restaurants are very lively at night time. The food is great. Everything is close by the transit MTA and the neighborhood is really quiet at night. nice place to live great neighborhood. what I also love about is that no one hangs out in front of the buildings no one is cooking out. The building is a very quiet. Everyone is respectful to each other’s neighbors because it’s a working community. and for the past couple of years, the neighborhood has been really safe and you can always find parking in the street whether it’s in your neighborhood on the same block or whether it’s on another avenue or even two blocks away the neighborhood is safe to walk to and from. I was born in this neighborhood. I grew up in this neighborhood and when I left, I ended up coming back and as of today, I am still looking for an apartment in this neighborhood. My work is in the city so I decided to come back to the neighborhood and enjoy and remember what I used to see when I was a kid."

    "The neighborhood may not be the safest or cleanest of them all but the housing is affordable. There are stores on almost every corner and many super markets. You are close to the 6 train line and a few different buses like the M115 and BX99. You are close by the FDR highway so parking can sometimes be hard to find if you own a vehicle that is. But overall even though this place may not be ideal for you it’s a place to stay until you are able to afford for another place of your choice."
