Riverdale is a friendly city to live in, the diversity is great! The school system is not bad, and the commute is great. There are businesses in Riverdale City, the city is also closer to the world's most busiest airport the Hartsfield International Airport which is less than twenty minutes away.
High crime rate, corrupt law enforcement agency. Police and jail system reform is necessary. More money is spent setting up and executing check point stops for people that are just trying to live and go about their business legally.
I have lived here since I was 4 years old and have watched my community changed over the course of my life. Everything from airports to public transport to supermarkets are all in great proximity with my home so it doesn't take too long to t get to where I need to go. The flip side is that there is quite a bit of traffic due to the influx of people, but again everything is so close and there is public transport, so there is no worry. The schools are all great and there's always something to do at night.
