Hello, what's your name?

Taijel Leonard.

Hey Taijel, so we're working on a project about the City Heights community and the Crawford area and what's your impression about it, so the first question is when did you move here?

T: Five years ago.

When you moved here five years ago, what impression did you get about City Heights.

T: [Laughs] I thought, when I first moved here I thought that it was a good place to live. Being surrounded by family members, I thought it was going to be good for me and my family to live close to the school and to my family so I thought it was going to be good

What kind of vibe do you get in City Heights?

T: Vibe? I get [pause] happy. I get happy, when I'm in City Heights, cause I got friends here, I have a lot of family members here, and I get....I don't know how to explain this.

Does it give you a lot of energy since you play football?

T: Yeah, energy of course. I like playing sports in City Heights, honestly. 

What do you think about the diversity of City Heights?

T: I think its good. I think we need more. I think we need more different types of races here. I think the more the better. 

Thank you Taijel.
