Almost always respectful. Not much trouble in the neighborhood other than cops there, but someone is just doing there job. Most kids are in and out and don't cause trouble.

Staff there are more than willing to help people in need. The person has to be willing to put in the work too. Had only positive experiences with the staff there. Been working with them closely supporting others in the community, definitely better run than places like cornerstone.
