I love the area I live in right now, it is really peaceful and quiet. I would live in this area but not in the same house if I could do it all over again. In this area I live in, I never heard of any crimes or bad thing happen around. When I was in other areas, I see and heard it all the time.

There aren't many abandoned properties around this area. Housing doesn't talk to much since I live in condos. The worst areas to reside around here might be more in the downtown area.
