    "You’re right next to Delaware Park and the Albright Knox art museum. Easy to find things outside to do with the family."
  • Garyk191
    "It is probably the safest neighborhood in the city. I’ve lived here for over 30 years. It is a great place to raise children. It is easy to get anywhere in western New York and even southern Ontario from here if you have access to every road and thorough fair. Surprisingly quiet for being so close to a major street."
  • Trulia User

    "I have lived here since 2006 and have had nothing but great experiences. The neighbors are friendly and very involved. There is very little traffic because of the one way street.
