Kenilworth Avenue

Should you live here? F — 15.9

Living on Kenilworth Avenue in Staten Island can be quite challenging, as indicated by its low grade of F (15.9) based on official city data. The street is plagued by a multitude of issues that significantly impact the quality of life for its residents. Illegal parking is the top complaint, with a total of 53 reports. This often leads to blocked driveways and sidewalks, with 14 and 12 reports respectively, making it difficult for residents to navigate the street, especially for those with mobility issues. The constant presence of abandoned vehicles, with 19 reports, further contributes to this problem, as they often remain parked for extended periods, taking up valuable space.

Another significant issue is residential disposal complaints, with 27 reports. This suggests that many residents are not properly disposing of their waste, leading to an accumulation of trash and recyclables on the street. This not only creates an unsanitary environment but also attracts pests. Adding to this problem, there are 20 reports of trash or recycling not being securely stored, which can easily be scattered by wind or animals, exacerbating the litter issue. Additionally, there are 16 reports of other complaints, with details including loud music or parties, which can disrupt the peace and quiet of the neighborhood, especially during late hours.

The street also faces issues with snow and ice, with 14 reports, which can make it dangerous to navigate during winter months. There are also 10 reports of 'No Access', suggesting that certain areas of the street may be impassable due to these conditions or other obstacles. Despite these challenges, the street has a relatively low crime rate, with only 0 felonies, 1 misdemeanor, and 1 violation recorded. However, the top offenses include harassment and assault, which can still cause distress and discomfort for residents.

In contrast, nearby streets such as Chatham Street, Aspen Knolls Way, Billings Street, Winston Street, and Gary Street all receive an A grade, suggesting that they have far fewer issues than Kenilworth Avenue. This stark contrast highlights the urgent need for improvement on Kenilworth Avenue to ensure a safer, cleaner, and more comfortable living environment for its residents.
