Scottwood Ave, Old West End

Scottwood Avenue makes me sad. It is part of the historic Old West End district in the city of Toledo and has some the most architecturally significant homes in the city. Unfortunately, the poverty and crime from the inner city have crept to the borders of the Old West End. Turn off of Scottwood Avenue, and you are in some of the worst sections of town. If you love old homes and beautiful architecture, you might want to invest in a good security system and live in this area. It is also close to the Toledo Museum of Art and downtown Toledo. I wouldn't recommend raising children on Scottwood Avenue.
