CONS
  • Amenities

    The majority of amenities will be difficult to reach within a short walk, often requiring residents to use a vehicle or public transportation for access.

  • Commute

    Low commute scores could be due to limited access to public transit in this area, as well as longer-than-average work commute times for residents.

  • Employment

  • Housing

    High-priced homes, limited home affordability and an unstable real estate market featuring below-average home prices might contribute to this area's low housing score.

  • Schools
