Northsider here. I can agree there are pockets of safer areas, but that doesn’t mean that it’s free of crime. We have personally dealt with a few instances that scared the bejesus out of me, specifically relating to (presumably) a homeless person on the property (in a GATED backyard) and/or in our driveway. Never resulted to anything, but still very concerning.

I’m on your side though. The north side is definitely questionable when it comes to safety!
