Alright, Could Do Better.
Pros
It is nearby plenty of food stores and public transportation.
Cons
Loud neighbors. Loud neighborhood. Building is low maintenence.
Nice super, personable management company
Pros
Laundry in the building, great. The building super is very nice and responsive. When we decided to break our lease early, the building management company was willing to let us out without penalty if we found replacement tenants. We ended up staying for the entire duration of the lease, but appreciated that this option was on the table after I asked the management company if this was possible. The neighbors are friendly if you say hi when you see them regularly and get to know them.
Cons
There are old apartments and new apartments in this old building, so roaches can be an issue if you aren't clean. This is only a problem if you don't take out trash regularly, so this wasn't an issue for us. Also, lots of rats in the outdoor trash cans.
