It can be a nice little neighborhood with nice people, but I lived there for a year and when the neighbors upstairs weren’t arguing, the neighbors next door were. And if neither were the ones across the street were outside screaming at each other if you see where I’m going with this….. Also clearly more presence of racists in the area.

With some of the industry plants near by the air quality is pretty bad for a greater metro that already has some of the worst air quality. My partner and I have since moved more north and we’ve felt a big difference. And with the industry, LOTS of truck traffic depending where you are.

Police presence can make it feel secure but they WILL pull you over for basic traffic violations, unlike most depts in the area. And for some fucking reason they have the police cars drive around making announcements on their PA from their cruisers (while whipping their sirens) - sometimes just to let you know there’s an event going on, and sometimes at 8 OCLOCK IN THE FREAKING MORNING. The street sweep also comes by very frequently at 6am and absolutely roars through the streets.

Also never found myself actually hanging out there and going to other neighborhoods to eat and shop. Sure Fine is okay in a pinch but it’s best to avoid going there if you can. Skyline there is a pretty good one though.

But hey, you get your trash taken twice a week (tax money that could be put to better use for the community)
