Felony Flats Neighborhood

I live here and I gotta say I LOVE IT! I mean sure It’d be swell if there were more hip little bars and places to eat but then my hood would be full of people and I hate most people, so yea I’m close enough to all the cool stuff that makes Portland so rad but when I’m sick of all you idiots I can come home and hang out with my dogs in relative peace… just avoid 82^nd ave. that is unless you’re in the market for a used car, crack or a hooker.

You need to take into account that these reviewers may have never lived in a real city where Felony Flats might be considered a desirable neighborhood. It looks A-​OK by my standards. People from Oregon are not used to a few closed businesses and some overgrown yards. Silly…

There’s definately some sketch-​tastings people and things in this area of Portland. The further you travel east, the worse it gets.
52^nd: My friend lived on 51^st, and while his house wasn’t to be confused with a time-​share in Palm Springs, I didn’t have a bad vibe parking my truck there, and I didn’t get any bad vibes of Felony Flats beings it was a block away.
72^nd: I forget the cross strett here (Flavel?), but I’m thinking an off-​brand grocery store. Right across is a laundromat that looks supplanted from Bronx or Brooklyn, and a video store with a promo poster for that Samuel L. Jackson/​Eugene Levy movie from a few years ago. I wouldn’t be inclinded to visit any 3 of those establishments, I’m sure if we Unilocaled them, they’d be a ²⁄₅ stars.
82^nd: Tweakers galore. Afraid to be outside the comfort of my car when it’s late and/​or dark out.

I’m gonna give this area a whopping 2 stars as well. It’s trying to gentrify, but it’s just not making it. It’s still ghetto. Way ghetto. Fortunately, I spend most of my time hanging out on the Avenue of the Roses, which has a whopping 1– extra star’s worth of ghetto-​tainment.
