I can understand the $$$ end of it - our first house wasn't the best neighborhood, but it didn't take long for word to get out that I wasn't one to try to play games with, so we got along.<evil grin> But sometimes it's just all you can afford, and you just have to deal with it as best you can.
Sometimes you do just have to deal but I can't imagine taking risks when a lady or even worse a child is involved. Sometimes all it takes is like you said just let others know you're not to be fucked with...
