Algo inseguro aunque tiene buena ubicación
Pros:

Ubicación

Cons:

Unos mugrosos andan tocando las puertas pidiendo $$$$ porque según es su zona y debemos pagar por seguridad nos protegen de la policía ICE y no sé qué más son unos delincuentes. Deberían tener mejor seguridad para no anden los pandilleros cobrando piso
