"Great place to hang out and visit, not the best place to live."

Food ranges from low-quality/low-cost to good-quality/low-cost to high-quality/good-cost. Has a plethora of coffee houses and bars/pubs and has three movie theaters on and one off The Ave. Has a number of choices of pretty much every ethnicity of food, often even on the same block, and even has two vegetarian and vegan eateries on or within two block of The Ave. Many choices in clothing shopping from the new and trendy to the ethnic to an excellent selection of second-hand. Has a handful of bookstores, a news-stand, and two comic shops. For convenience it has one grocery store and two drug stores.

The place is busy and many places are not open late enough. There is a very noticeable young homeless population and an easy to stumble on drug trade and to go with both an police presents.

Living on and just off The Ave usually means bad parking options and not very great living conditions for the cost... thankfully it is fairly easy to eat well on the cheap.
