I used to live in the ghetto years ago when I was just starting out. Hearing gunshots was the last straw for me there. I got my ass in gear and got out of there as fast as I could, which wasn't as fast as I would have liked. They were not mostly shooting into the air. I've lived out in the country before (and hope to move there again) and the gun shots there never bothered me much because I knew they were from hunters or just people target shooting on their property. I'll take that any day over people shooting each other at the end of the block. Good luck and stay safe.
