You also have Union station (Train) that travel north to Springfield or take the train to NYC. Only down fall is traffic but now a days there traffic everywhere. "

    "I’ve been renting here for 5 years and am excited to move out. The neighborhood ranges from houses in serious need of repair by slumlords to some beautifully restored Victorians. Views of the river are fantastic from some houses."

    "Increased crime in recent year or two. Police presence in Fair Haven Heights is stretched thin due to their large geographic area, as compared to FairHaven proper (directly across river). I have lived in the area or over five years and have been robbed, mugged or burglurized several times. Police response has been slow and at times even indifferent. Perhaps they have bigger fish to fry. My neighbors have also been robbed. I opened a P.O. Box for deliveries as it is unsafe to have packages left on the porch. I plan to move over to Fair Haven where there is better lighting and traffic...and hopefully better policing."
