Balboa Blvd, Granada Hills

Balboa Blvd is a long thoroughfare through the San Fernando Valley. It is one of the primary North-South traffic arteries in the area (aside from the freeways) and has problems that come with it. The majority of the residences are low end apartments, but most of the zoning is low end commercial--gas stations, liquor stores, fast food.

If you live in the general area then the street will likely be unavoidable to you, but my suggestion would be to not live on balboa. In general, the further west of Balboa you go the nicer the residential zones will be, and the further south along it you are the nicer things will be.
