    "I used to live there for about 6 months this recent year and the violence in the area is very terrible. We were told we had to leave because we were victims to a house shooting. This house is very infested with roaches and mice and the landlords only come to spray repellent outside. There’s mold growing in the basement, the bathroom leaks to the basement with very big holes to the point where you can see the tub from the basement ceiling "

    "The crime is terrible. The neighborhood is not good if you want to be at peace or have children. There are some beautiful houses in this area but I would absolutely not live here. The neighborhood is a little scary. I would never walk my dog or let my kids play outside. There would be a chance of them being hit by a stray bullet, taken or is being robbed. No thanks "
