Thanks for posting that as a Shirley resident, I guess that Shirley is that bad although it really didn't look like it from what I saw compared to other areas I've seen like Roosevelt or Mount Vernon.
Your welcome, And i wasent doing it to be ignorant or anytihng of the kind, just speaking the truth of what i have seen and lived in my whole life. Can't wait to move in the near near future
I would check crime statistics and demographic info and also tour the area firsthand. Of course, it's not all bad--there are residents who've posted here who have good things to say. As for its designation of "hood" it has its elements, but it ain't nothing compared to REAL hoods.
I'm not trying to be all negative PR, I swear, but I really did see this on the news today:
