    Any info you can provide on St. Anthony would be appreciated.
    Safety, walkable (in summer of course), any other issues?

    I think he's targetting THe Landings at Silver Lake Village as thats close to his work.
    Cany anyone recommend any better?

    Thx

    Yes, seems nice enough. During college, I had a friend that lived in that complex. Seemed quite nice. I also had another friend that lived in the complex across the street. We used to meet at Applebee's fairly frequently. Nowadays, I occasionally stop in to WalMart/Radioshack/Gamestop/Chipotle in that area. Can't really comment on walking around though. I always drove there, and I still do. Sometimes I will walk from Gamestop to Walmart if they don't have a game I want, but that's about it, lol. I'm not sure where he plans on walking, but there is a school and police station a couple blocks south on Silver Lake Road, so I assume it is fairly safe.

    I grew up in the area and still spend time there at least once or twice a week. Great area. Still have your common sense precautions (locks doors, don't leave valuables in the car, etc) but overall very nice area. Not sure if he has kids but good schools are all around the area too.

    My ex-fiancee lived over in that area right off of Silver Lake Road. It's a nice area, I wouldn't have any qualms about moving there.

    I lived in that area in college. When we bought our house a few years ago that what the first area we looked. We couldn't find what we wanted there... but we really were looking for something in that area. Close to everything! It really seems like everything is 15 minutes away (or less).
