It's not the most safe area but 99/100 times you'll be totally fine. If I were you I would take the orange line from Jackson square to ruggles.

Your personal safety depends on if you're alone and the time of day, but generally I think you'd be fine unless it's 2am and you're by yourself there's a tiny chance you could get spooked

99/100 is pretty accurate, so about 3/4 “questionable encounters” a year.

Is it really unsafe to walk alone? Asking cuz I'm alone usually. However, I avoid walking alone past sunset

I was asking because I had a bad incident near the blue bike stand between Bromley Heath and Jackson Square station - a guy from that project racially abused and punched me below the ear near the blue bike stand there at 6:30pm on a Sunday

Maybe it was a one-off incident, that too maybe because it was near Bromley Heath. But I always want to ask about a place's safety now before I venture out alone
