The area resembled a small city. There was a medical and dental clinic, laundro mat, cleaners, independent and chain restaurants, liquor store, police station, Mexican and Filipino food restaurants, two hair salons, Rite Aid, and a bank. The area well kept. The streets were newly paved. Buildings looked fairly new. It was very clean. Many of the cars in the parking lot were also nice. The lawn was well kept and very green.

There was a variety of people. People of different age groups. Ethnic background were similar to the demographics of Morse and O'Farrell. People seemed to be very friendly. Everyone there were customers or employees. There were a few kids hanging out in front of the Mexican food place. The employees at the liquor store mentioned that many of their customers could not add change.

The area was noisy , because of the two main streets surrounding it. One of the people interviewed was about 18 years old. She was is a recent 1997 graduate from Morse high school. She is a current employee at Little Ceasar's Pizza place. She says that her community is becoming scarier.

Jo-Jo, a Blockbuster Video employee, was very responsive to the questions regarding her experience at Morse High School and the community. She has lived in the area for 25 years and mentioned that she felt safe in the area because she knew where to go, and where not to go. She had a negative attitude towards her experience attending Morse High School, but said she didn't mind the community.

The liquor store is literally like a place out of a story, its two employees the main characters. The store itself carries a variety of products, from porn magazines to bon bons, and the employees had quite a few stories to tell, and were more than willing to tell them. Jim, a stock person, seems to be disenchanted with todays educational system. He feels that today's teachers don't stand a chance because of the limitations on discipline, Jacqueline, the French cashier agrees. But all in all, the two were friendly, and kind, and had friendly and kind things to say about the community.

Rick, an employee at Paradise Cleaners, had lived in the community for 18 years and had graduated from Morse in 1987, although he claims not to remember much about it. He said the community was normal, with some gang problems, although less than other areas. He said it was clean, and felt that the police substations had something to do with keeping the area organized. He thought it was important for new teachers to be introduced to the area and become comfortable there.
