Well first of all there is an ice-cream truck that rolls through everyday which is amazing. There is a bus stop directly at the end of the street that is very convenient. There is a gas station that sells the most authentic tacos for only 1.30 and every weekend there is an open flea market at the end of the street with food vendors and very affordable clothing and merchandise.
