One resident calls it a "perfect spot" with "plenty of entertainment". Another says: "The neighbourhood has a lot of potential to live comfortably, but due to frequent nuisance from confused people on the street, drug deals, drug use, and even sleepers in the porches in winter, I often feel unsafe."
