    "clean lovely well kept area closer to public transit, union college. And close to downtown. lots of good places to be social, eat and/or have a nice drink. I can say in experiencing the last 2 storms the streets don't have sufficient drainage in heavy rain or downpours. Rain water regularly washes above and onto curbs/sidewalks "

    "I've lived in this section of Schenectady since 1980. Amazing Victorian homes to buy or rent at affordable prices. I love walking to the library, shops, Proctor's Theater, and restaurants. The Union College campus is gorgeous and offers free movies and concerts every week during the academic year. The area also has a very active community of poets and writers. "

    "Really convenient area to be in. Great food and dining at either end of Union St. Nearby parks (Central Park), shopping, entertainment (Proctors, Bow-Tie Cinema). Lots of great walking and biking terrain and close to the GE Realty Plot. This has pretty good parking for cities as well. "

    "Proximity to Union College makes this a safe area, free of serious crime. I love walking to the library, PO, shops, and restaurants. And the neighboring college campus is gorgeous. Is there student silliness? Yes, sometimes... but there's also a wonderful mix of people of all ages and I enjoy attending college films, concerts, etc."
