Poplar Grove Neighborhood SLC

[Shazia Chiu]

Hi BP! Long time lurker, first time poster :)

I'm curious to know if any of you have info about the Poplar Grove neighborhood of SLC. For reference, it's on the west side of 1-15 about 10 mins away from City Creek Mall and the Salt Lake Temple. I've found some articles on the interwebs that say that area is next in line for a face lift, but I've found other articles that say the opposite. Does anyone have opinions on that? Also, I'm wondering if the neighborhood is safe; I'm having trouble finding updated crime data online. 

Thanks in advance!
