Very safe and beautiful area with a great park. This is by far the nicest neighbor in the zip code. Although it borders Hilltop, an area with moderate petty crime, it doesn't affect Westgate as far as I've seen, read or heard.

There is a casino nearby. We have plenty of pizza places for when you need to get food over the phone. Many of the strip malls have been converted to schools of some sort. There are bars everywhere. There just is not enough jobs for my part of town to be uplifted. The fast food jobs are hard to get because there is a lot of competition to work there.
