It's a pretty awesome location IMO. Also really convenient to Marda Loop, which is nice for restaurants and groceries and hipster coffee. I'd still be there if it weren't for extenuating circumstances in my personal life.
The community never had an overall rough feeling anywhere, except for around Moon Grocery on 16th. Its been shot up a couple times and every once in a while I'd see cop cars near there late at night. I just assumed one of the 70's bungalos in the community would have made a good spot for a grow op / gang house since it was a nice community close to downtown and close to major thoroughfares.
