Jay was a good host. I only met him when we were leaving, because I was in the city on business and up early each morning, and he wasn't at home the evening we arrived, but he told us the code to open the front door. The neighborhood was good. We had inadvertantly left the sliding side door of our rented minivan ajar the night we arrived and only realized it the next morning when we went the vehicle. Nothing had been taken; so I'd say it was a safe neighborhood. Maybe we were just lucky; an unlocked door on a minivan with out-of-state plates could be an invitation to getting something (or the vehicle itself) stolen.
