Meaning would you feel comfortable walking down the street of your town without being worried that someone is going to rob you or jump you?

Not in Durham isn't...I have been robbed at gunpoint twice.
 
Depends on where you are in VA Beach.
Where I live, I could walk down the street no problem.

S***, just about anywhere, you could walk down the street.
It's not all hood in alot of spots.
 
I live in the most dangerous place that is not a war zone, I have been mugged 3 times.
 
I live out in the boonies. I could leave my car unlocked with cash sitting on the front seat and still find it there the next morning.

But I always lock the front house door. You never know, haha.
 
Sheffield is the safest city in the UK. :p

That said, there was a rape down the road the other month, but I can always walk around Sheffield any time of day or night without feeling unsafe.
 
South Africa,
 
^ Yup, and G. Bush is SO interested in spreading Democracy because it makes the world safer...:whatever:

I live in a small town so yeah
 
Vancouver...I'm safe where I live, but I don't go down to the east side
 
safe in my hood and safe in most of the city, but there are parts....doom! Doom! doom!
 
I'm a heavy-set black man who lives in a predominately Asian suburb. What do you think?

I might get mugged or raped by the police.
 
Well I'll be moving to Miami soon..so thats a resounding no. I might as well be in D.C. or East St.Louis
 
It depends on what time it is and what section of Memphis you're in

HOLY CRAP!!!
I live in Norfolk.
It's the same way on my street.
It's pretty safe, until you get a few miles away (Ocean View)
Then you gotta watch you back.
I was chased on my bike once actually.
 
I live in a city with a population of 348,000 or so... we have a rather large number of guncrimes, actually. Over our Canadian Thanksgiving, I think, some guy walked right into the centre of downtown and shot 4 people.

That said, no, I don't really feel safe late at night downtown or in the surrounding slums, but I don't really care. If I have somewhere to go, I'll go there.
 
I don't have to worry about a thing. All Old people live in my town. i think there more afraid of me mugging them then anything.
 
I'm not too scared of Miami. I just wont go to Little Havana or Little Haiti except during the day time and only certain places that tend to get more people who don't live in the neighborhood(tourist type spots). Places like Liberty City I'll avoid completely, and I won't go out at night unless I'm driving. I'll take public transportation during the day though.
 
Where I live isn't the safest place in the world but I'm certainly not afraid to walk down the street. If I get robbed or jumped than that's just what happens but if I'm going to be a scared little girl about leaving my house than what's the point of living in that area?

It would be time to move. So, I'm pretty comfortable where I'm at.
 
Not anymore. Someone broke into my house during the night last year. It was well scary
 
A guy got shot last week across from my work.
A guy got shot in the same area a few months ago.
A guy got stabbed while walking a block from my house late at night where I've walked late at night a million times to get wine after the liquor store closes.
Then I read an article confirming that random/gang-related violence has gone way and steadily up here since 2004 and they don't know why.
It's excITING! Like Mad Max, Beyond Thunderdome!
 
Yep, I love where I live. I mean, my house is facing a busy street but I love walking through the side streets behind my house. At night. It's nice other than the sound my steps make in the snow. :dry:
