Karen Chirre: Portland stadium neighborhood in crisis

Karen Chirre owns the Stadium Superette convenience store with her husband in the Stadiumhood neighborhood off of West Burnside in Portland. Karen says that her husband is a first generation immigrant who lived in his car in order to save money to realize his dream of owning a convenience store. According to Karen, over 500 people have committed crimes against the Superette in the past four years. Karen says that she may have to be killed before Portland’s public safety problems get better.https://stadiumhood.orghttps://katu.com/news/local/fentanyl-hotspot-near-providence-park-has-neighbors-calling-for-larger-police-presencehttps://katu.com/news/local/multnomah-county-chair-does-walk-through-with-neighbors-outside-providence-park-jessica-vega-pederson-portland-city-councilhttps://coachmaxsteele.substack.com/p/hanukkah-presents-28?utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=webhttps://www.justcompassionewc.com
