    "Not nearly enough parks or areas for dogs to socialize with other, and so much trash on the street sidewalks. The scarce grassy areas are covered in fleas. "

    "Terrible The traffic is terrible at certain times. I am looking to move closer to my job so that I don’t spend unnecessary time wasted in traffic. I believe that traffic is always bad during rush hours in the greater Los Angeles area "

    "The diversity of people and it’s unique history. It’s close proximity to LA Live, Staples Center along with local mom and pop stores and restaurants makes it a unique neighborhood. The area has a lot of potential and will only get better/safer with time. "
