"Loud Scary and Dirty."

Southeast Portion of 228th:
I lock my doors when I go down the southeast portion of this street.

The 50th Precinct crime reports frequently report on theft and violence in this area. The buildings look dirty and unkempt. There is trash everywhere. I've walked along broadway and 228th street and the individuals on this street yell obscenities and seem to be high and\or intoxicated.

The shops look dirty, rent looks cheap, but essential services are nearby. There is a grocery store, fast food places, and a nice target nearby.

Northern BLOCK of 228th:
The homes look every cute and well kept. It is like a Paradise in the middle of a warzone. I would imagine that these residents are much older, own their homes, and everything has gone downhill around them.

I would NOT recommend going to this neighborhood for anything other than a documentary on terrible living conditions\violence.
