The noise isn't limited to musical disturbances; five complaints were about boats creating commotion with their engines or music, further exacerbating the auditory inconvenience.

The street also struggles with illegal parking, with 15 complaints, often involving vehicles blocking driveways or hydrants, the latter creating a potential safety hazard. Nine abandoned vehicles and four derelict vehicles further contribute to the visual and physical clutter of the street. Residents also face issues with missed waste collections, and dead or dying trees, which can pose safety risks and impact the street's aesthetic.

In contrast to Fordham Street, nearby streets like Browns Lane and Reville Street have grades of A, indicating significantly fewer and less severe issues. Despite these challenges, the crime rate on Fordham Street is relatively low, with only three misdemeanors and one violation reported, suggesting that the majority of issues are related to quality of life concerns rather than serious criminal activity. However, the high number of public order offenses (10) reflects the broader issues with noise and illegal activities on the street.
