[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So sad to live your life with such a consuming level of fear. [/quote]

I had a girlfriend who went to Loyola who felt like that. She was held at knife point on the campus there in the nice part of Baltimore. The was almost 2 decades ago. I can't imagine it's gotten better since then. But yeah, you're probably right. The crime statistics are probably lying. Racist cops and all that. That's why real estate is moving so fast in the area...[/quote]

I went to Loyola and my kid is there now. His friends go to other urban schools- Drexel, Duquesne, La Salle, Manhattan, etc and they all said that as long as you aren't doing "stupid stuff" like walking alone at night, you are safe. The campuses are safe but the surrounding areas are where they need to exercise caution. I walked all around Guilford, Roland Park, Wyndhurst, Homeland and never felt unsafe. They are the nicest areas of the city. Sure, there is non-violent crime but most people are stupid and leave their cars unlocked with visible belongings in it. That's just dumb for any location.[/quote]
