Neighborhood summary

Living on Sumner Avenue in Brooklyn, as per the official city data, offers a sense of safety and cleanliness, with an impressive grade of A (score: 98.6). The street is well-maintained, with graffiti reported only once, and snow or ice concerns minimal, reported just once. However, residents face a significant challenge with illegal parking, which has been reported five times. This issue can lead to blocked hydrants, also reported five times, potentially compromising fire safety. Additionally, one report of a blocked sidewalk hints at accessibility challenges that could affect pedestrians, including the elderly and those with disabilities.

Neighborhood watchfulness seems high, with no reported felonies, misdemeanors, or violations. However, the stark contrast in grades of nearby streets—Marcus Garvey Boulevard and Van Buren Street with an F grade—suggests that while Sumner Avenue is well-kept, its surroundings may present different challenges. This could impact residents' perception of safety and quality of life, despite the low crime rates on Sumner Avenue itself.
