Neighborhood summary

Waters Avenue, a residential street in the heart of Staten Island, presents a mix of challenges and charms for its residents. The street, with a grade of B, scores a commendable 85.6, reflecting a mostly safe and clean environment. However, a few persistent issues mar the otherwise pleasant living experience.

Illegal parking is the most reported complaint, with a tally of 6. Residents often find their driveways blocked or struggle to find a parking spot due to vehicles parked illegally or occupying spaces for extended periods. This issue is exacerbated during winter months when snow and ice accumulate, with 3 reports of snow tracking and 2 of missed collection. The street's narrow width and lack of designated parking spaces contribute to this ongoing problem.

Another significant concern is the presence of lead, with 3 reports of lead kit requests from residential buildings. This indicates a potential health hazard, particularly for children, and underscores the need for proper inspection and remediation. Additionally, the street's curb condition and overgrown trees or branches pose challenges, with 3 reports each. Broken curbs can cause tripping hazards, while overgrown vegetation can obstruct sidewalks and sightlines.

In contrast to these issues, the crime rate on Waters Avenue is reassuringly low, with no reported felonies, misdemeanors, or violations. This, coupled with the diverse range of street grades in the nearby areas, suggests that Waters Avenue offers a relatively peaceful living environment, despite its specific challenges.
