    "There's a church nearby and alot of events happen there. The neighborhood can be better if we got more law enforcement in the area, but not just this area. The whole Benton Harbor. Benton Harbor has the potential to be great with many businesses around and of course Whirlpool. Make the roads better for Benton Harbor and establish more law enforcement!"
