That is the most commonly cited neighborhood where people are shocked that there is so much crime. That's a very historically depressed neighborhood, less than the old E. 14th days, but just because there are two streets with cute old 1900's houses does not mean it's safe at night.

East Lake isn't that much cheaper than other options, and a mid-high crime dump. You'll be hard pressed to find a resident who's excited to be there, especially after a year or three.
