    "I've lived in w7th for 6 years in a home and two years in a rental. The people are friendly and look for each other. Homes are affordable especially for all the amenities. Lots of upside here. Only downside is sporadic petty crime but pros way outweigh the cons."

    "I live in an apartment complex, so I am pretty removed from the neighborhood experience. however, the community seems good and I see a lot of people walking and talking to one a other in the neighborhood. There is a few homeless people who follow the railroad tracks and live under the bridge, but they are very kind and I haven't had an issue with any of them. "
