Safety & quality of life
Within 200 metres of the block over the last 12 months: 36 reported crimes (about 3 a month, 44% of them violent) and 108 resident 311 requests to the city. A busy commercial corridor logs far more than a quiet residential block, so read this against nearby blocks, not the citywide total.
