I told her I liked the area when I went there a year ago but also that the neighborhood is not for everybody. I said that it's "the hood", there's a lot of poverty, sketchy vibe, it can be intimidating for an outsider/a person that's not used to that kind of atmosphere. Finally, I said it depends of her level of tolerance, if she's used to a hood vibe she might go for it, and the rents are still quite affordable.

Après, je donne juste des indications, c'est plus une histoire de ressenti personnel, l'idéal aurait été que vous alliez passer un après midi dans le quartier histoire de voir comment vous le sentez.

Sorry I will write just in english so.
Thank you Frenchy for your review, I am used to this kind of neighborhoods and I don't care if I live next to poor people or african americans or puertoricans or dominicans etc etc
I am renting a room but my buget is not very high (800$) but the room is nice and seems good located near the train station (500 meters).
