    "I used to live at Hinman & Main for about a year. Both the neighborhood and building I lived in were friendly and I felt very safe even walking my dog at night. The shops and restaurants on Main are delightful. It’s a quiet neighborhood. Truly a gem of an area. One warning: the city parking lots have long waiting lists and parking is not easy."
