Neighborhood summary

Living on St. John Avenue in Staten Island, as indicated by the official city data, presents both challenges and areas of concern. The street's grade of C suggests that while it's not in the worst condition, there are several issues that residents must navigate. One of the most pressing problems is the state of the sidewalks, with broken sections reported four times. This not only presents a tripping hazard but also makes navigating the street difficult for those with mobility issues. Additionally, obstructions on the street are a frequent complaint, with four reports. These could range from illegally parked cars blocking the flow of traffic to unsecured debris or abandoned items cluttering the sidewalk.

Another significant issue is the presence of damaged or overgrown trees and branches. This can lead to blocked fire hydrants, a serious safety concern in case of a fire, as well as potential property damage during storms. The street also sees frequent missed collections, which can lead to a buildup of trash and create an unsightly and unhygienic environment. The presence of lead, reported twice, is also a cause for concern, as it can have serious health implications, especially for children.

On the brighter side, crime on St. John Avenue appears to be relatively low, with only two felonies reported in the recent past. However, the top offenses, which include miscellaneous penal law violations and grand larceny of a motor vehicle, suggest that there could be issues with property crimes and disorderly conduct. Despite these challenges, the street's proximity to other streets with higher grades, such as nearby Saint John Avenue with a grade of A, could provide a sense of hope for potential improvements in the future.
