It definitely has a different feel at night though (I mainly walk around charles/king, can't really speak on behalf of the more residential area). I can see the bad safety perception for a woman on her own.
I was watching the mls pretty religiously over the past year, and relatively speaking I never found an expensive house in that area. I think the area will improve quickly if the two blocks from Cedar->Cameron between King Charles are developed.
I think Church St, for example (the next one over from Charles) is quite nice. I may have some feedback from my wife soon as we're moving next door to Cedar Hill in a week!
My comments are mainly around the LRT stop (Cedar/Charles), which at the moment is pretty barren. I really want to see someone develop the empty lots between king/charles. I think just having more people around will help shake the perception of that area. I imagine the further away from this corner, the nicer/safer it gets. I really like the neighbourhood location, and I'm sure it's a lot better towards Church. Especially around the lofts. Victoria Park is nice and close too. That's why I picked this stop in particular to only go up in value and "gentrify".
