I'm thinking of renting an apartment in a high rise building in this area. However, I am currently living in the suburbs and have never lived near downtown.
Would you say this is a safe area to live in? Any recommendations, warning, general info, etc. that I could find useful?
I am a women in my early 20's, and would be living on my own. Hence, I'm trying to do as much research as possible before making the 'big move'.
It is a bit of a gritty area (by Ottawa standards anyway) but I wouldn't call it dangerous. There are lots of people out and about into the evening hours.
