Local recreation and parks
Tilles Park is home to soccer fields, racquetball courts, a tennis complex and a roller hockey rink. The grounds come to life with color in the form of redbud blossoms and purple flowers in the spring, while burgundy and goldenrod leaves flutter from the trees in the fall.
Just outside the neighborhood is Tower Grove Park, a vast green space and arboretum. Dating back to 1889, this wooded park is a staple of the community, hosting educational and cultural programs like art exhibitions, concerts, various lecture series, and the Tower Grove Farmers Market.
For indoor recreation, residents can head to the South City YMCA on Arsenal Street.

Mature trees line the streets
Predominantly residential, Northampton has businesses scattered on the outskirts while homes line the streets at the center. Mature trees line broad, two-way streets with narrow sidewalks on either side, allowing for ease of walkability. The Tudors are some of the most distinct houses, evoking a fairy tale cottage with its stone archways, foundations and chimneys. Homes on Northampton’s northeast side were built in the 1950s and later, with wood bungalows and Cape Cods prominent. Two-bedroom, two-bathroom homes usually sell for $150,000 to $300,000, while three-bedroom, two-bathroom houses – some of the most popular in the area – fetch between $250,000 to $450,000.

The city itself is not bad, it's just gotten a reputation for being full of bad people and I think that gives the few bad people that live here the green light to act as they please. And that's all the media sees

I see cops driving around often enough, they are pretty busy in this city. I have concerns with police action and minorities, and they are easily pinning crimes on the stereotypical criminal, using evidence and facts over instinct

A very friendly area....if you are white. Some crime but relatively safe. Almost all white folks and scattered racists.

there is a good variety of stores around my area. There are more local smaller shops which are quite nice. The larger stores are a bit older and outdated. i typically can get all my needs nearby except for sewing and art shops are farther away
