The crime in this area is bad. Since people in this area are unemployed they feel the urge to have to go out and sell drugs, of rob people to make their income. The police and detectives investigate for one day, then give up on the case after that. The neighborhood would be better of solving cases ourselves. In order to prevent crimes we need better police officers, programs to get people on the streets working, etc.

The area is generally nice. People will not bother you as long as you don't bother them, and are genuinely friendly. It is quiet, which is nice on spring days when you need to study. Corner stores sell hot and cold food, and a plethora of household items. Overall, the area is a great spot for one person or a small family.
