    "This is the worst neighborhood to live in and plan to live in for long term. No respect for anyone. You have fireworks going off all day and night. Music blasting during after hours around 12-3 am. Just not the place people want to live and see their kids grow. "

    "I work and hike through the neighborhood. The rent has gone up greatly since 2014. It has become hard to find even a room and bed bug infestation is a problem in many homes unfortunately. . The bus system is very good and walking through the neighborhood is nice. The people are not outwardly friendly but they are helpful if you ask for help.. I love albany."
