    "It’s okay for a temporary situation. I have lived here since March of 2020 and it’s relatively safe. I have never seen anyone’s car get broken into. But had some stuff taken behind my fence where my apartment is. You have to be careful."

    "Plenty of dog owners that don’t clean up after their dogs. Neighbors not soo neighborly. Enough corner stores and parking varies especially around summer time."

    "It has a dog park nearby and it’s great for dogs and other pets. People are nice and the area is great for small restaurants and boutiques. There’s also great sunsets that happen every night so it’s very pretty. I don’t understand why I need to type at least 100 words for this, this is very unnecessary "

    "It needs some more municipal attention. Bad streets, not a lot of green space, and we’ve called the police multiple times in the middle of the night for domestic disturbances, assaults, intoxicants, and other issues. Good restaurants though."

    "Dog owners may like the area since the sidewalks make it an easy neighborhood to walk through. There is a park nearby below Westminster in the armory. Below Broadway and near Carpenter St is up and coming. Lots of low key hip places with very chilled out crowds. "
