I just got back from Gilbert, Arizona. Yeah, that is a really safe place. I liked that town, and Chandler.

| | | | My area is #5. I don't live right in there thank god, but I live a little outside of it. A lot of places I go to are in Flint, and it can be a little scary at night. I had a buddy who moved from my town to live with his grandma in Flint, whenever I went to pick him up it was kinda like I was watching around my car the whole time trying to spot anyone who would try something. The houses had bars around all the windows and doors, with multiple locks on every door. I lost touch with that friend after a while, he got involved in some bad ****. He's a drug dealer now and might be going to prison.

Also: Chicago didn't make the 15 most dangerous list, woot!

Seems like a lot of these are in the South and Midwest, too.  |

Frisco especially....I was up there one weekend for a wedding and saw multiple Ferraris, a Lambo, Rolls and Benz galore. The biggest crimes there are how many poor saps are killing themselves trying to keep up with the Joneses.

Except the good is really good, and the bad is really bad. The plaza is a large upscale shopping area, surrounded by 30 story condo's where rich people live work and shop. The plaza is also less than a 3 min car ride to where a friend of mine was robbed at gunpoint in his car at burger king.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Sep 2004 Location: SF Bay Area | | | Ah yes Oakland. When I lived there I was knocked out by a burglar, held up twice by men with large knives, shot at by a group of teens in a car, and caught in the middle of a police shootout (among other things). Plus, even after I moved I worked there for quite a while and was held up in my office.

I could have outrun Usain Bolt that day.

But its probably better I don't stay long enough there to have one. I have also been to Toms River and Brick NJ. Surprised to see them ranked so high. Well goes to show you NJ is a mix bag for sure.

I used to dash into Oakland only to go to Yoshi's jazz club or the Paramount Theatre. Leaving late night was SKETCHY. Baltimore is quite a bit better in that there are some nicer areas, but you can still take a couple wrong turns and be in trouble real quick.
