Go gauge it yourself. Black and Hispanic people do live there, if that’s your underlying question.

...wait until you hear about the Vietnamese...
It has great racial diversity.

I only see them in the hair store. They’re cool, but I do need to frequent more black-owned stores.

I live up on ashmont hill and would regard the area as quite safe. I’ve never had an issue with packages being stolen and I haven’t seen any locked cars broken into( unlocked cars is a different story, lock your cars!) I walk to the restaurants on Dot Ave regularly at night and never had anyone bother me. The T is still the T so you get some issues but that’s not specific to ashmont. While my favorite restaurant, the ashmont Grill closed recently, There’s still plenty of great places to eat, and things to do around here. All in all I would say definitely consider it as the area only gets better and better every year and it’s a lot more affordable than many other areas in Boston

This was a good thread on the area from not long ago.

We've lived very close to the T station for over five years and really like the area. We feel safe and enjoy the restaurants, cafes, and access to downtown. Lower Mills and Adams Corner are accessible fun spots too.
The only difference is Ashmont Grill has closed.
