Our Take
The neighborhood offers cheap homes and decent transit to downtown, but the median income is far below the median home price, so affordability is a major concern. Walkability is poor and the area lacks bike lanes, so most residents will need a car. If you’re a budget renter or first‑time buyer, it could work, but if you rely on local amenities or have a higher income, it may not be ideal.
