My partner and I are considering moving to the area, maybe pleasant Street.

But we were turned off by some rowdy neighbors with a scary dog, have seen multiple incidents of teens breaking into cars or kicking door(i.e. Teenagers doing dumb sh** and getting caught), a seemingly big stray animal problem, and issues with drunk people assaulting people in cars etc.

So we're wondering if the area is really all that safe, or if anyone has any context on any of these things we saw in recent police reports (within the last week).

Ty!!
