Astoria is expensive for nothing , the only 2 .3 spots are ok around Broadway and 30 ave station and 31 ave as well, but if you go up or down is same like any area , i live here and i can’t even afford the rent just because of safety and commute to Manhattan,

That neighborhood is going to get a little more police presence as soon as the big Hallet’s Point buildings are done and filled – which I’m sure that they will be even though I don’t see why anybody would want to pay big money to live in that part of the hood.
