Campus Dr
"College Town with a feel for life."
Palo Alto is known outside of California as a a computer city that makes much of what people use in PC's today. But its also a great place to find a good bar and fun people much of that is from the college town of UCLA and Campus Dr is a great place to see all that is great about college life you can just by driving down the street find more than one sports field filled with people playing having fun and just enjoying the day. The food is good, you fin the normal college find pizza places and fast food joints. The people are great and nice and the streets are clean and you well not have a hard time finding a police officer if you need it. So if you like people and the sun or just a bike ride give it a try.
Hollis Ave
"A cross section of life."
Hollis ave is a avenue that goes by the cross secton of all queens from lower class to higher class houses and the street are a easy why to see that, from potholes to smooth streets and big houses its mainly a backstreet with lots of lights not sure what it is like at night but a easy ride during the morning .
210th St
"A major avenue at the boarder of a two city town."
Its a nice house kinda of a ave, that is right on the line between, a lower class old kinda neighborhood with a new upper class neighborhood just north of it. Its is so easy to see but i won't say any one side is better than the other but it is clear as day which is newer and has a high price to live in.
Jamaica Ave
"Pot holes and slow traffic all the way from start to finish"
Jamaica ave is a major avenue that runs for at least i think 20 miles. the traffic is slow and i always seem to be stuck in something there are clear roads but there is always someone stopped or a truck pulled over. There are a few stores along the street but not much.
Nashville Blvd
"Homes living new york style"
Its a suburb in the way new york and big city's can only be houses are close by and people are walking up and down the streets and kids with bikes and basketballs going to a near by park. The area as its quite areas but at the time i was there it was full of sounds from cars horns. There are a few local stores near by.
Evernia St
"A line in the sand between the high class and the working"
Evernia St, is a place were old homes are still standing , homes you would see on a post card and just behind that homes you would see in a horror movie. It is between the ultra rich shoppes of west palm and the not to far run down ghetto of the area Turing day time it is ok and even at night its not bad but. I won't walk down the street at one in the morning there is a Amtrak station just a few blocks away and it a nice place. But other than that its a very empty place nothing really going on there, no signs of life.
Fern St
"A shopping place to be for high price shopes to cafe stores."
S Quadrille Blvd is a nice place to be, it has shopping and small stores you wouldn't find anywhere else unless you were in France or other country. Its close to the court house making it a place for locals and passer by to stop and see whats going on. The street are clean and with the court house so close police are always nearby make it a safe place to walk and move around in. Its not loud at all there is traffic from time to time but nothing that would give you a headache. All in all its a nice place to see you might even see someone famous drinking coffee.
North Flagler Dr
"A coast to be seen and taken in"
N flaglar drive has go to be the best coastal driving street in Florida it has a great view of the sea and the streets are all paved nice and very clean, its the home to big banks and office building but the area has a beach like feel with people on bikes and shorts just taken pictures and enjoying the wind . There is nothing there really besides the sea and the building so if you were looking for something else am sorry there not even a gas station on the street. But if you get out of your car and want a nice picture its here you want to be.
Village Blvd
"A police speed trap or old peoples hang out"
village Bl has go to be the oddest place i have been to the have 20 to 25 mph school zones with no schools in sight and police love to hide behind tree just waiting for a speeder or for that matter and one that stop to close to a stop sign its a nice and clean place but the over policing make it a place to avoid.
Douglas Ave
"BAD PLACE TO BE AT NIGHT"
it was i tough neighborhood, there are a lot of gangs or i should say there are a few gangs and a lot of guns in the area car driving up and down the street with no place to go and small houses in narrow streets with plenty of dead ends not a place to be with you don't know your way around or have no idea were you are.
North Dixie Hwy
"ITS A MIX of up town and working town"
North dixie hwy runs north and south in west palm beach it passes by the federal court house and the downtown area of west palm which when it comes to high class is very much up there. But on the other end if you go over the bridge into the northern parts of Dixie you well find beat up gas stations and empty lots if you drive up enough you'll see small gun shot houses and people just living. It has small town feel to it there is nothing what would let you know your in a place of great wealth if you were on the wrong side of town.
Opa Locka Blvd
"A Caribbean community"
Caribbean community with lots of flavor, it is not the safest place in Miami but. If your looking for something hard to find most likely you well find it on there, to low cost cars to a dvd. The night life is mostly dead. but you well find a soca club or a local bar.its not a bad place if you know what your looking for but if your not i wouldn't recommended you go at night.
29th Ave
"Alittle of everything"
29 ave in Opa-Locka, Florida has a bit of everything its a odd area some what of a warehouse area with house and a airport not far from it. There is a local flee market in the area that is very popular on the weekend. A great place to find fresh fruit. The highway is just a few blocks away. But there is a toll to be paid. If you don't drive it not a problem the streets are walking friendly. And local shops can be a bit far but easy to find.
Banyan Dr
"Weathy area big houses"
its a quiet place out of the reach from the main street there is only a few ways in and it is surrounded by a lake and river. making it really hard to reach on foot. The houses are very big and there is no public transit on the street but a few blocks away. There is no stores close by and you would need a car to reach one. Its a suburb of kendall.
Ponce de Leon Blvd
"Low noise and great area"
Ponce de Leon Boulevard, runs north to south mostly but it does turn east to west It is a great street to visit or live. I runs right though miracle mile the heart of coral gables. The shopping area were you can find any number of designer stores and big name restaurants. The schools in the area are more private then public but the public schools are very well kept. The area is very well kept and the streets are always clean. Finding a supermarket might be hard since there is only one that runs down the street. Other than that its a great place to live.
West Broward Blvd
"Great living area if you have a car."
Broward Blvd, is a nice place to live it stretches. East to west it covers a large part of Fort Lauderdale. If you start off on the est end you'll find your self in downtown Fort Lauderdale it is not really known for it night life but it does have a very nice beach area. On the other end you'll find yourself in the suburbs. The local bus transit service is really bad. You'll end a car to get to any shopping center or mall.
Northeast 15th St
"Beach area fun place to live."
The N.E. 15 street area is a nice place to live. It is a walk away from the beach or the bay. you can go fishing right off the coast. And it is a few minutes a way from downtown Miami. recently they build up the local shopping center community. A local target super store is open and the area is full of small mom and pop stores. It is also a few blocks from Miami design district.
Northwest 20th St
"Low cost living"
the north west 20th street area is a nice place with plenty of low cost houses and has a great park area. it has been known for its bad crime but it has been better since those years. There is a great shopping community selling Sunday wear clothing. and other things you would find hard to find. The night life is none existing. The local transit service is good but nothing you would want to take late at night in the area.
Northwest 17th St
"A very ethic area"
the 17th street area is not the best of areas to live, But it is close to the court house and the main hospital in Miami Jackson memorial. It is surround be warehouses and on weekend you can find local fruit markets. The crime rate is a bit high in the area but not something that is out of control. The local tr-rail runs right thought the area making it easy to travel in and out of the area 24 hours a day.

"Great Location close to everything"
Its a great street just five blocks north and you have a walmart and sams club. Along the whole street along side 87 ave you well find a endless number of restaurants stores and coffee shops. It is just twenty minutes away from the airport and thirty minutes away from downtown Miami. It is centrally located. The only down side would be that one of Miami dade police headquarters so when ever they is a emergency you well hear a squad car running down the street.
