They be outside till something in the morning playing loud music! You call the cops they leave then come back when the police leave! It’s a bad area period not for kids to play outside it’s not safe And they make it so dirty in front of your house "

    "THE GENTRIFICATION OF WORKING CLASS FAMILIES SHARING THE SAME GOALS. AFRICANS CARRIBEANS HISPANICS AND AFRICAN AMERICANS ARE ALIKE. THERE'S A A CHURCH IN MY BLOCK THAT SERVICES COMMUNITIES NEAR AND FAR WITH THEIR RELIGIOUS PANTRY AND OTHER SERVICES. THERE ARE COLONIAL STYLE AND TOWNHOUSES. BUS AND SHOPPING ARE CLOSE TO TRANSPORTATION. FASTFOOD RESTAURANTS ARE NEARBY EITHER YOU CAN GO OR STAY.WHAT I REALLY LOVE ABOUT IT IS MY RESPECT FOR A COUPLE OF ELDERLY NEIGHBORS TELLING ME THE HISTORY OF THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND THE CHANGES THROUGHOUT THE YEARS. THERE'S A CHARTER SCHOOL THAT'S ONE BLOCK AWAY AS WELL AS A HOSPITAL 2 BLOCKS AWAY. SO THAT WHAT MAKES MY NEIGHBOR UNIQUE. IT OPENS THE DOOR FOR THE NEXT GENERATION THAT I MUST BE PREPARED FOR."
