The accessibility with everything is perfect, everything is around restaurants, notaries, clothing stores, pharmacies. However it is close to neighborhoods with high crime rates but not in this particular area.

Crime and safety just seem to be getting worse and worse along with finding parking in the area if you don't have a driveway.
