"We just recently moved away from this area and were willing to take a hit to get out -sadly, no regrets either. I'm only taking a minute to provide a simple personal opion. The take home is there are some neat areas to live close to downtown that have a much greater sense of pride and desire to improve and sustain success than this area. No one really cares around this area which is fine but there are places where residents do. Crime is noticably escalated and community is deteriorating instead of improving (sadly not even slightly). I've been a city dweller my whole life and am pretty used to the circumstances that surround that life; however, we were just tired of getting robbed and as violent crime has emerged more it is advised to just admit defeat and bail. Not that we cared but the school system is terrible and has not shown the slightest hint of improvement in the 10 years we lived there either. This is just honest perspective to help others avoid a mistake we made. Overall the area has noticable fallen in the wrong direction and I feel will continue as such indefinitely. There are much better areas, such a Central West End, etc. that I would recommend considering over this area if you want to be proximal to the "city.""
