I say its almost not worth it to go downtown because you have to make such an effort to avoid the crazies. Not dodging drive bys.
Ive been to North St Louis, East St Louis and Southside and Westside Chicago. There are some horribly violent areas there. I do have perspective.
Closest call ive had in Austin was while cycling late at night. Kid was looking to jack my bike while i was tending to my bike and another outside a hole in the wall convenient store across from some gov housing. I grab my U lock and held it in a not so friendly manner and the punk took off. (this was before CHL) Old man walked by and warned me about "those damned kids".
