19 Oakcrest is in MATTAPAN, not Hyde Park-Please correct.
We have our own problems without taking on Mattapan's.
The Hyde Park station covers
The Hyde Park station covers that area, so they got the call. It is withinin the old Town of Hyde Park boundary.
I've changed it
Police-district lines - and down in that area, even old town lines - don't always reflect today's boundaries, and on looking at the map again, yeah, it looks like Mattapan to me (another example: There's a small area down the hill from us that used to be part of Hyde Park, but which everybody now says is Roslindale). Also, Google Maps declares it Mattapan, and it's usually pretty reliable about such things.
