Rented accommodation predominates. This is not a family-friendly location. Despite schools being within 2 km, the high crime, noise and transit-oriented environment make it unsuitable for raising children. This street may particularly suit property investors. This is a transit hub, not a residential neighbourhood. Functionality scores 48/100 (excellent access and transport), but liveability scores only 40/100.
