I once lived in a high crime area. Gang members would limp past after being shot. Sometimes the gangs would stop cars with out-of-town visitors and pull them outta their cars and beat them and rob them.
I live in a relatively safe area. We had one murder a few years ago, but none recently. What we are experiencing is a higher rate of robbery and burglary. We have a large elderly population and they are fair game, as you know.
HAHAHA I live on the Islands of Savannah about 9 miles halfway to the Ocean, on the Marsh with the Alligators. The Azaleas above to the right only bloom for about three weeks in the spring and are about a five minute drive away. You cant see any of it of course because you dont live here.
