    "Nothing really, I honestly hate this neighborhood and I can’t wait to move ASAP. There’s nothing to do, and crime every single day. No stores within walking distance and very dangerous. Walk around at night and you’re asking to get hurt and/or robbed. "

    "Stapleton is noted for festivals, parades, places of worship and supper clubs. We have multiple modes of transportation and we're close to the Verrazano Bridge and other bridges. "

  • Claude Sheffield.
    "I moved to Stapleton from Brooklyn last year thinking if I could handle Brooklyn I could handle anything, boy was I wrong. There was constant shootings in the area, stabbings, drug addicts walking at all hours of the night, gangs walking around in the middle of the day, people play dice on Gordon street and it always erupts in big brawls and shootouts, 4 people were shot just on my block alone one fatally. My house and car were both broken into and what I'm guessing an addict broke my window to steal my change cup, the bars are ok but very scary after about 10pm. People stand in the street and look at you like you're crazy for trying to get past, homeless is a big issue. Ive lived in Bushwick and Williamsburg Brooklyn but this neighborhood in Staten island is like the Brownsville or south Bronx of Staten island. Avoid at all costs, especially Stapleton & Clifton."

    "Rosebank is a very convenient location. Within 10 minutes from the Verrazano Bridge and Staten Island Ferry. This property is located between Tompkins Avenue and Bay Street. The block is mixed between older large homes and mostly newer construction Townhomes. On the Bay Street corner you have the Staten Island Railroad train station. The Railroad takes you to the Staten Island or down to the tip of the South Shore in Tottenville. Bay Street is packed with plenty of shopping, entertainment, transportation, etc. There is a Post Office located on Tompkins Avenue and Vanderbilt Avenue (just 3 blocks away). "
