    "I lived on this street in the 1990s and 2000s and raised my family there. What began as an idyllic, sociable neighborhood where families looked out for one another declined over the next two decades into an area where shootings, car bombs, break-ins and gang activity made it a place you were afraid to come home to or leave. My family wouldn't even come visit me. This is no place for children, and I can't honestly recommend it for anyone. "
