What are your general comments?

ok...so the area around temple has a really bad rep but to my surprise it didn't look as bad as I'd imagined. It looks even better than this one ghetto area I saw in LA. However, Brian basically said the area is not a nice place to live so he said to live off-campus...far away from campus actually. The neighborhood seems really blagh...I can't imagine doing anything fun in Philly
