Belmont Shore - E Livingston & E Broadway

Hello all. I am looking to possibly move to Belmont Shores around E Livingston & E Broadway. It looks like it is a couple of blocks away from 2nd St, which I love for quick walks for food and entertainment, and near a Catholic Church.

My biggest concern is safety. It would be just me (36f) and my dog. Is it safe for us to walk around the neighborhood? Are dog parks, beaches close to this area? Any tips would be appreciated. I’m really just hoping to find an area that is vibrant and safe. Thank you
