    "There are lots of families in our area with kids and pets , and there’s plenty places to eat. Parking is hard to come by, and its pretty noisy throughout the day. Night time seems quiet enough unless there’s a party near by and you can hear the loud music or it’s the 4th of July so you will hear fire works almost through out the year randomly which is annoying if you have pets or babies. It’s not the cleanest of places so be careful where you walk there might be broken glass or feces from dogs, cats or even humans. "

    "It’s centrally located and close to all areas of LA. Rents are still relatively low. Parking is absolutely awful. People are not neighborly and save street spaces daily when they have ample parking spaces in their lots. There’s very little neighborhood camaraderie. Bikes stolen frequently. Packages stolen so frequently it’s better to ship to an Amazon locker. My car has been broken into 3 times in 7 years. The only reason i stay is rent is so cheap for a huge space and it’s close to everything. "

    "Gentrification and in-fill development has made this the fastest growing and most dense part of LA. Plethora of dining options and pubs/bars/clubs. More singles/couple oriented. Plans are being implemented to retain the Korean-American character. Some beautiful examples of architecture and stately buildings mixed in with modern and hodgepodge buildings. Closest thing to a walkable part of town with access to public transport aside from DTLA. Major homeless population is a big deterrent. "
