    "Lots of CATS and they breed a lot! I seen two litters of cats just driving by the other day. I don’t know what they’re doing to help with animal control but it’s not working. "
  • Brittany russ
    "Too many stray cats and stray dogs. Plus, there’s no care in the neighborhood. Raccoons are also out, some might have rabies. "
  • Trulia User
    "Cincinnati is cleaning it up because the gun violence in that area is bad, id there's not a shooting everyday then it's every other day. even the young teens carry and shoot people. I know the city and community is cleaning up the local area, but it is close to downtown Cincinnati, right where the best hospitals in the nation are, far enough from downtown Cincinnati to make it affordable just got to weigh in either your wallet isn't effected by mortgage or rent then your safety or life. I would never raise children in this location "
  • D A.

    "This is a very nice area to live in. Quiet and the neighbors are friendly, and watch out for everyone's homes. On one side, the lot is vacant, and on the other side, is a vacant home."
