Dude, this is basically Government and Acadian.

There are $500k to $1M homes as close to that corner as the Youth Center is to that corner.

I know exactly where it is and it's experiencing some gentrification but it's still very close to the hood. Florida and Acadian, a mere 2 or 3 blocks away is sketchy as hell.

The hood is a few blocks away from anywhere in BTR. I still wouldn't classify Govt and Acadian as sketchy. It's not freaking Mohican.

I was getting off I-10 and Acadian last night just before 9:30. Police unit was on two wheels making its way towards the scene. No injuries, just another shooting

no it's not. It's right on the edge. as the crow flies, it is probably less than a mile from $1 mil houses.

I lived there for 4-5 years and I don't remember that area being ghetto. Maybe your definition and my definition of ghetto is different

anything north of government is sketchy. I should have said outskirts of the ghetto...once you cross florida you are in the middle of the ghetto.
