    "It’s a terrible neighborhood and falling apart really quickly it used to be a wonderful neighborhood here in Tucson near the mall but things have really gone down in these last past few years. Lot of homeless and drug users around, And the police are constantly around because of the constant crime."

    "I've lived in the neighborhood for 1 year and 4 months. while I wouldn't go out at night for a stroll by myself, But I have on many occasions walked to the store to get groceries alone at night. Yes there are transient people here, if you go do your business quickly and get home, it is like any other urban city. Just be safe, carry a flashlight, and don't talk to strangers. Most people are friendly and say hello when they pass by. During the day it is a most quaint neighborhood, safe, and you can't help but love the mountain view I just wish there was less crime in general in Tucson. It is a shame for such a lovely old neighborhood being forgotten. Especially for its location and being nestled so close to Oro Valley. Police presence is strong."
