Growing up their it was easy to make friends and it was better that my middle school was right next to a park. We all would hang out there and have great times.

I liked the closeness of the neighborhood but the violence needs to change. There is always a shooting or a robbery and its hard to just be outside now.

The community is very diverse and active in participating and creating events to bring the community together and make it better as neighbors! They are kind-friendly activities for students and opportunities for the community

This area has gone down hill since I first moved here in the 90's. The crime rate has gone up, I wouldn't personally raise any children in this neighborhood.
