My goodness. Talk about a totally disproportionate response.
I disagree since the PP was simply posting facts that unfortunately all families need to consider.


Sure, but the "you must have been rejected" nonsense? Grow up.

So typical.

Where do you live that Crozet/Charlottesville inspired this comment? After 4 years in New Haven, Charlottesville has never felt like this to me, even with the recent uptick. It’s among the safest campuses in my DC’s list.


It is actually surprising how much crime there is in Charlottesville for such a small college town. My DDs first year we got constant text alerts from the school. While it wasn’t on campus but around the housing off campus. I just never realized there was gang activity in Charlottesville.


You need to get out of your bubble more often.

Charlottesville has always had a sketchy element in town. The only time I’ve personally been a victim of a crime was as a student there, despite having lived in several more stereotypically “dangerous” urban areas. People tend to think of it as an idyllic little hamlet where white people drink wine and listen to jam bands on their weekend getaways, but it’s a real city with real working people.

I heard there was a fatality but that is totally unconfirmed. Heard three were attacked with one fatality.
