The access is great because of the closeness to the station. The architecture is a bit disorganised and sometimes it does get a bit dirty and unhygienic; the trash gets everywhere around the bins and is not picked up frequently enough, as I have seen the same thing stay in the same place for over 9 days. But the community is diverse and at least in my area it's pretty safe, even late at night. There are a lot of students and immigrants and as an international student I feel very welcomed. My building is a bit messy but there is no serious issue like pests or anything, and for the rent it’s pretty good.
