This area is very hit or miss. It is very expensive to live, but also very safe. I dislike how close my neighbors are, and that parents at the schools are very inconsiderate of residents who live on the streets. There is a nice scene of things to do though.

German Village is a great neighbor for young couples. It is expensive and the outlying areas are risky, but the nightlife and food choices are great.
