  • Eve A.
    "I think if you live in this 'hood you would want to have good security. I live here and my building is very secure. I feel fine walking around during the day. There is McClymonds High School - a technical magnet school down the street. The grounds are well maintained and the teens coming out of there are generally respectful and quiet. I find that most of the people in this neighborhood are very friendly. I walk my dog 2 times per day here - there is a clean grass in some places but there is also trash and broken glass to be avoided. "
