Go, put in an address and see for yourself. Don't rely on one person because one person can say anything. I have an uncle twice removed who doesn't think 9/11 happened...

It pays for itself after one mugging.


Kind of like AAA.

It's a private service (analogous to Carfax), so a fee is often associated with it. Given that you're about to buy a home, I'd say $40 for a month's worth of information is negligible.

As for feeling safe, I'd do the nighttime walk-through. Only you can gauge that for yourself. Since you're already in attorney review, I'd do it asap, so you can back out if you feel unsafe.

This is my neighborhood, Its not like Brooklyn, think Harlem 1995 circuit with a southern twist. Its pretty quite and the crime that is happening is in concentrated areas which I would be more than happy to give you a list of .

The area surrounding the station is cool, lots of Brooklyn transplants and home owners. but I can get you more info if you would like to PM me.

We also have an active neighborhood association.

Check out your neighborhood with neighborhood scout. Then compare it to your present neighborhood.

My boyfriend and I are very close to closing on a home near the Richard Street LR stop. We are excited about this move, but very concerned about the recent shootings and robberies.

I will take the LR to and from the city. How is the foot traffic from RS LR around 10 pm on weeknight? I'll usually be coming home around that time. My boyfriend has a car, and sometimes he comes home late--after midnight--after working.

Are any of you Greenville residents nervous about the spike in crime? Should we back out of buying this house and continue renting solely because of the crime? Buying is more economical for us.

We were aware of the crime in this area while shopping for a home in Greenville/bergen-Laf, but now it seems to be increasing with these stray bullet shootings. We've lived in Bushwick and Bed Stuy before so we are familiar with poorer areas, but didn't have a problem with crime besides a few roommates getting mugged (not at gun point though).

Any advice would be appreciated! So glad I found this forum!
