Details

Nuñez feels more like a suburb than city, with single-family homes and gardens that create a strong community watch atmosphere. The riverside location has nice walking and jogging paths that local families use regularly, so there are usually people around during daylight hours. Since it's residential, neighbors know each other and notice unfamiliar activity. You'll see kids playing on sidewalks and families in the parks, which creates a welcoming environment. Being farther from downtown means very low crime rates and a peaceful atmosphere - perfect if you prioritize safety over being close to nightlife.
