[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Are you east or west of the metro? If west of the metro, it is very quiet, but there is a bunch to walk to it's just a little further than you may be used to. If east, I'm sorry. It is going to take a long time for that area to transition. However you can take solace it your wonderful investment? You will definitely benefit long term.[/quote]

What, exactly are you talking about?  East of the Fort Totten Metro is a big area.  You've got Michigan Park which is a solidly upper middle class neighborhood of single family homes.
You've got North Michigan Park which has a great rec center with a playground, lovely picnic area and exercise classes.
You've got Riggs Park which is mostly a middle/ upper middle class area which is safe, friendly, and has lovely oak trees lining the streets.  It's close to Fort Totten's Fort Circle Park which is a wonderful place to hang out during the pandemic.

If the OP is talking about the area near the Lasalle-Backus Education Center or right by the WalMart, those are not the best spots, and there's also a party zone in the middle of Chillum, but other than that the area has been middle class for many years and is a nice place to live.

So, my point is that if you draw a 1 mile circumference from the Fort Totten Metro, you circle about nine different neighborhoods.  Eight of them are great places to live with friendly neighbors.

We need more info from the OP to tell them what the neighborhood is usually like.  Rest assured that usually, neighbors chat more, are more outgoing, and gather in neighborhood exercise classes and at outdoor concerts more.  We've got a great neighborhood.  How it is now isn't how it usually is.[/quote]
