Best neighborhoods to rent in Harvey?
We're a young couple and It's a a small town city with about 21,710 people. Poverty rate is 24.0%, which is higher than I expected. Crime rate is something to consider -Harvey sits at 235.7 per 100K. Downtown has improved a lot in recent years. There's a growing tech scene which is exciting. People here are genuinely friendly, not just surface-level.
Pros:
- Affordable cost of living
- Nice parks and trails
- Low taxes
- Easy commute
Cons:
- Not very walkable
- Lack of diversity
- Chain restaurants dominate
- Homelessness issues downtown
