Taking a trip to Irving in a few weeks.

Should I be terrified to go outside at night? lol I don't know much about the place.

I'll be staying with family.

Grew up there. I wouldn't be terrified like in south Dallas but I wouldn't live there anymore either

Irving ain't too bad. Got some real close friends that live out there and like it okay. There's a Hooters out there, so it can't be all bad.

North Irving, absolutely no problem. It gets a little more Low-life the farther south you go but still pretty safe comparatively..

Cool deal.

I'm not sure where exactly I'll be staying. Doesn't sound too bad either way.

Thanks!

Yeah, my son lives there. Part of it is overwhelmingly Indian and pretty peaceful. (Movie theaters are 1/2 Hollywood and 1/2 Bollywood. Very weird to me.) Part of it is not so cool, but for the most part it's not bad.

Of course, as part of the DFW metroplex, the highway folks change, destroy, or rebuild roads on a completely random daily schedule just to make sure your GPS doesn't work.
