My husband and I are looking to rent a one bedroom apartment close to the beach near 85th street? How is the neighborhood? We are coming from the 'burbs in Broward so need as much information as we can get. Not looking to spend more than 1k and we definitely need parking. We have two small dogs so I would want to feel safe walking the dogs at night.
Can only give you a short term perspective, but wife and I recently moved to 73rd and the beach (April) and are enjoying it! We spent a lot of time working with a realtor to find a rental property that had what we were looking for, and made several visits to narrow the list. We bike past 85th street all the time; seems quiet enough. Use caution re: homeless; quite aggressive at times, especially near park areas (such as the one near your prospective new hood). Good luck!
