You might have some blighted homes, but I am in that neighborhood every day of the year. Walking, eating and with my friends and family. Never, has it been a crime-ridden area since they revamp of Freret took place 15-20 years ago.

Yeah, it’s not a bad area at all anymore, especially closer to Jefferson Ave and south of Freret Street. The closer you get toward Claiborne, the houses aren’t in the best of shape and mostly renters occupy them. But even in those areas I have seen a proliferation of renovations/tear downs. The neighborhood is nothing like it was 15 years ago, that’s for sure.
