    "It has the highest crime rate in a 10 mile radius making it one of Philadelphia's most dangerous areas. The kids that have moved here have put up drug corners and regularly break out in 10-20 person street rumbles. The streets are always riddled with trash. This place has became somewhere you only come if you have to. I'm surprised businesses are even surviving. I'm always anxious of being outside longer than a few seconds. "

    "In August, 2012, a resident of this block was shot to death while sitting on his porch! There is a lot of drug activity on the street and loitering by unemployed men who smoke weed all day. Parking is a problem. The street is noisy and overcrowded. It is not safe."
