"it was a great area but our couple neighbors turned on us. I stay away we love our neighborhood now. Clearwater Rd is a great area. "

"I drive a car but would like to utilize the bus routes and wished they would be more frequent to pick those up at bus stops and operate longer in the evening..out traffic is mild to moderate"

"All of the kids play together which brings the parents out to interact with one another as well! We’ve become great friends with our neighbors! "

"I have lived in this neighborhood since since elementary school and now I am living here with my own child. It’s convenient in its distance from downtown, SCSU, and parks, but that comes at a very high cost: vandalism, violence, drug use, loud parties, properties sliding into disrepair... it’s a long list of cons. It’s not uncommon to call the police several times each week to report crime within sight or earshot of our home. A common example of this area: most parents let their kids play outside in the yard when the weather is nice, but in this neighborhood that also means outdoor parties or (at the very least) loud people roaming from house to house. With bass blasting, public urination (all the time), and all kinds of offensive, vulgar, profane language being yelled or screamed at any point (day or night), it is really stressful to let children play outside even in a fenced yard. I truly love some of the older homes in the neighborhood but the student housing makes it very difficult for a family to live safely or comfortably. "

"Really nice neighborhood, full of retired teachers and worker. Kids come trick or treat every year. Neighbors look out for each other."

"The roads are in poor condition. There’s a prostitute across the street & druggies in several houses/Apartments nearby. Many parents let their kids run free during the day 8am-9pm, so don’t expect sleep if you work overnights. "
