While Chestnut Hill does have more affluent residents, the homes backing up to the courts are not. They are 1000 sq ft row homes. The courts are super active and right in their backyard. I wouldn’t want to live there, but all the activity probably deters the thieves stealing catalytic converters.

Ngl, I listened to that audio clip embedded in the article, and there’s no fucking way I’d want that outside my window all day. I’d be losing it too. I have zero stake in any of this, but it’s really, really easy to dismiss peoples’ complaints when you ain’t dealing with it.

Came to say this. Might be most modest block of homes in CH. And the courts are pretty new. Plenty of people in that block were there when the courts were just tennis courts.

These same people complain about the school across the street. If their homes weren’t next to schools and recreation areas, they’d be worth 50% less.
