need help - info (Colorado Springs: to rent, neighborhood, school district)

[evangels2]

My family and I are looking to rent in the NE area of colorado springs to be specific this home: 4840 Topaz Drive, Colorado Springs, CO 80917

I have three younger kids and would like to know how safe is this area/neighborhood? Any inputs would be greatly appreciated as I would like to contact the property manager, but only if I know this area is good for kids.

Good area, should be few problems. Close to LOTS of good stuff.

NOT in school district 20, which many consider the better choice, though most D11 schools are fine. If you could get NORTH of Woodmen Road, you'd be in D20 and IMO an even better area than Topaz.
