The only complaints I've heard so far is the noise from Skytrain and crack heads lol.

Man, I sold my Joyce condo for about $290k 5 years ago and then saw it go up to $490k in assessed value in the 3 years after ($354k, $441k, $490k) after being flat for the 5 years before. That extra $200k would have come in handy paying down my mortgage.
But yeah, that area was a great place to live. The Skytrain is noisy (I faced the tracks) but other than needing a proper super market right at the station it was pretty nice to live around.
