Great Neighborhood. Schools including Franklin high school are decently funded, have great staff, and are within walking distance. Very biker friendly. Great restaurants near by. Struggles with homeless population near Powell street, but they are respectful for the most part. Roads and sidewalks are well maintained on the more major roads. Overall good neighborhood growing up in.
