    "I love how diverse the neighborhood is. Neighbors say hello and watch out for each other. I walk at night but do stay between certain blocks, I wouldn’t walk Meramec towards Grand at night, but the inner neighborhood is good. Wish people and the city trash trucks did a better job on the litter though, sad to see airplane bottles, chicken wing bones, and broken glass all of over the streets. "
