    Review Summary for 1605 Walton Avenue
    Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on openigloo.
    Recent reviews for 1605 Walton Avenue, Bronx, NY 10452 indicate significant issues. Tenants mention a noisy, dirty neighborhood with pests like roaches, rats, and even a raccoon. There are concerns about unclean hallways, poor maintenance, and non-residents loitering. Water pressure and heating are decent, but the high rent doesn't justify the conditions. The responsive owner is lacking, leading to dissatisfaction and limited support. Recommendations urge thorough cleaning, pest control, and security improvements. Despite some positives like proximity to transportation, the negative aspects overshadow the building's appeal, making it challenging to recommend staying here.
