    "Family friendly community that feels very safe even off of big cross streets. I have seen streets blocked off for block parties on multiple occasions, and everybody is respectful."

    "THE BOTANICAL GARDENS ARE THE WORST BUSINESS CITIZEN IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD. STEER CLEAR UNLESS YOU HAVE YOUR OWN GARAGE WITH DOOR, THE GARDENS' PARKING IS COMPLETELY INADEQUATE AND THEY DO NOT GIVE TWO TUGS ABOUT INCONVENIENCING THE ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOOD WITH SWARMS OF SUBURBANITES AS LONG AS THEY MAKE A BUCK! NOR DO THEY COMPENSATE LOCAL RESIDENTS WITH SO MUCH AS A COURTESY DISCOUNT FOR DISRUPTING OUR PEACE. AVOID!"
