Living on Herbert Street in Brooklyn can be quite challenging, as indicated by its low grade of F and a score of 23.9. Residents here face a daily barrage of issues that impact their quality of life. The most prevalent problem is illegal parking, with a staggering 29 complaints, suggesting that finding a spot to park one's own car can be a daily struggle. This is likely due to the street's proximity to busy Meeker Avenue, which may attract commuter parking.

This isn't just your typical late-night music, but also early morning construction noise, with 7 complaints specifically mentioning construction before or after hours. Moreover, alarm noises (NR3) have been reported 12 times, indicating persistent disturbances that could be caused by faulty or misuse of alarm systems. The street is also plagued by blocked crosswalks, with 27 complaints, which poses a significant safety hazard for pedestrians.

The street's condition is another concern, with 11 complaints about the sidewalk and 9 about trash. This suggests that the street might be in need of more regular maintenance and cleanup. The presence of encampments and homeless persons seeking assistance (each with 5 complaints) indicates that there might be social issues at play, which can also contribute to the overall sense of disorder.
