    "There’s a lot of homeless but not much crime. It’s affordable and safe. The parks are nice, and it’s got decent schools. I would definitely buy a house in this area at some point. There’s some trashy elements in the apartment complexes but it’s pretty full of community feeling and people look out for one another here too. "

    "There is a very active & big railway station to the west of NW Expressway that kids should stay away from. If your a light sleeper the trains make a fair amount of noise even in the evening. "
