Default 16th Ave SW Is this an okay area?

My fiance and I are moving to Rochester in June and we were up there in February and liked the SW area. I know parts of the city around St Mary's hospital are not such great areas. Does anyone know specifically how 16th Ave SW is? Any help would be appreciated!

If you are looking for a place close to the hospital because of commuting issues, you may want to consider living in an outlying area of the city with bus service (bus fee complementary for many Mayo employees)--e.g., farther out of the downtown in the SW or SE. Housing prices are comparable to rent in a lot of good neighborhoods right now. The SW and SE are the up and coming hot spots with new facilities and shops. The area you are considering has good and bad points. "not such great areas" is relative to your experience, but overall I believe Rochester is a safe city.
