My family and I are moving to the Anderson area. I am running into a few issues getting realistic information about a particular neighborhood we are looking to rent in.

We are a white family who prefer a diverse group of people to socialize with and have around our children. I am completely against the KKK and anyone who shares their views so a neighborhood of ex or current clan members is not on my top list. At the same time I do not want to be on the other side of the fence with any minority neighborhoods who may think we are a white racist family or who may be racist against whites as well.

Ok now that you kind of have an idea of who I am let me get to my question. The house we are looking for is on the 1600 block of W 14th Street in Anderson. I have pulled a crime report that does not show a lot of activity. On the other hand we have family who lives there that claims this is not a good neighborhood to have our 3 little boys living in.

I am not asking for bashing or anything just honesty. Is this neighborhood safe for a love everyone kind of white family? Is it safe for young children? Is it safe for mixed Latino women? (My mother will be living with us and she is 1/2 Puerto Rican and it shows). Please do not just say "well it is a dark neighborhood" or "it is a very black neighborhood" cause I have already heard this and well honestly that is not an issue for me. I only care about safety ie: murder, rape, child molesters, shootings, drugs etc etc etc...

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thank you
Laura
