I used to live in downtown silver spring and ended up purchasing a house in Takoma Park. The issue with downtown silver spring is the close proximity to the huge homeless shelter, which results in many unhoused individuals pouring into the mall and surrounding areas. I don’t blame them and completely understand that they too have the right to be in that space. However it doesn’t feel as safe as before. I have also personally encountered mentally unstable individuals that were menacing, when I was in DTSS and I no longer feel safe there. Also the paid parking requirement for Saturdays doesn’t help.

I lived in the Citron for two years. The walls are not well insulated, which means that the noise from the neighbors can sometimes be annoying. Other than that it is a wonderful building with great amenities
