Calling Drexel parents of off-campus students

<p>Hello everyone,</p>

<p>My son will be a sophomore at Drexel next year. He and his friends are looking for an off-campus apartment/row house. They found one on N. 34th and Melon Street. The unit itself is nice but from what I’ve seen through google street views and what I learned through research, the area looks a little sketchy.</p>

<p>My son agrees that it is a little sketchy but not bad. He says he already knows Drexel students who live in that area.</p>

<p>My question: Have or do any of you have children that lived off-campus from Drexel-in this area (Mantua)? Or if you know anything about it, can you confirm or deny its safety?</p>

<p>Your help is most appreciated.</p>

<p>Thanks.</p>
