Working in a high crime area - what can/should NF be doing? RSS feed

Anonymous
In the last year, the area where I work has become increasingly unsafe. For each of the last three years there have been more and more shootings and violent attacks. Some gang related, some involving innocent people. Last week the neighbor's home was burglarized - while they were home. This week a body was found in a nearby alley with multiple stab wounds. DCPD has led community talks on the matter. DB told me the police said the bulk of the incidents are happening in a one mile radius that NF lives in.

During the winter months I will be outside after dark to walk to the metro 15 minutes away. All but the last five minutes of my walk are in a residential area with little foot traffic. If something happened, I can't be sure there will be anyone around to know. I am feeling afraid, distrustful every person on the sidewalk.

My question is: does my NF have any responsibility for what happens to me when I leave their home? My instinct is to say no, it's not their job to be accountable for the rest of the world. However, I would like to ask for help with paying for uber/lyft home each evening. If they are unable to help with the expense then I can't imagine I will feel comfortable working in their neighborhood anymore.
