Which areas of your town do you try to avoid?

[Spinneret]

I would say fast foods places at night , kids hanging around

All of them, my town is terrible.

Everywhere I go is 30 miles out of town in a different town. Walmart, grocery store, restaurants. I drive to other towns rather than drive 3 miles into this town.

I came back from out in the country. Being in or near town is driving me batty, especially this town.

Really none in particular, at least not during daytime hours or early evening. There are some areas of town that I jsut have no reason to go to at all, and those do tend to be the purportedly "less savory" parts of town, but If I had need to go, I would. Sometimes you can find a good restaurant in the sketchy areas! It's all relative too - some might call the area in which I live sketchy. The fact is most people are decent enough anywhere you go, and I'm not going to fear going anywhere just because of the perception that is is unsafe.

Lunch hour, the town center, the entire HS is out for lunch.

Depending on where we are at, there really is no place that I avoid unless we are new to the area and I am not familiar, I don't want to get lost.
We are fulltime RVers, sometimes we stay places for months and other times we puddle jump. At the moment we are in Wisconsin prepping to head south little by little. It's a new route for us, so I may avoid leaving on my own at night as I don't know too much about most of the places on our route.

When I lived in the city I came out to where I live now for shopping and stuff. Now that I live here I go further out for shopping... lol We have a mall in our town that I avoid during the weekend, it gets super busy with lots of teens and a fight or something is always breaking out.

 

[MIGrandma]

None. We live 12 miles from town. Population is about 3,000 I think. I love our small town

 

[TippyThomas]

My nearest town is very, very rural so there isn't much to avoid really.

 

[BlueStarryHat]

None. My little town is extremely safe.

 

[tvguy]

Downtown. Or anywhere you have to pay to park.

 

[EMom]

I’m not living someplace where I have to avoid certain parts of town. But I will avoid some areas during high traffic times of day.

 

[DVCjj]

Our beautiful Downtown. Absolutely sickeningly true.

 

[luvnwdwgal]

Our town is pretty small so there’s not too much that you need to avoid. I’d say driving by either of the schools in the morning or afternoon.

I live in a city that regularly is labeled as one of the most dangerous in the country. I only go to about 15% of the city - and yes I live in the city, work in the city and my daughter goes to a private school in the city. So we're in a pretty small circle we hang out in. Lots of "no go" or "we don't belong there" areas.

 

[amcnj]

I can’t really think of any places. Oh, maybe behind restaurants where the dumpsters are!

 

[MrsCobraBubbles]

The road through the county park (part of which is in my town) is beautiful but locals know you can't drive through it from 5:00pm to 7:00am because of deer. A deer ran into the side of my car last year, boy did that suck. There's also no cell signal for a long stretch of it so if a deer rendered my car undrivable then I'd have to walk through creepy woods with bears and coyotes for a while . No thank you!

 

[NannyBeBe]

I feel relatively safe everywhere during the day, but don't go anywhere at night if I can avoid it.

 

[FlightlessDuck]

There are certain stretches of highway with atrocious traffic during the 3PM-5PM window.

I would say fast foods places at night , kids hanging around

Any fast food place in particular or just all of them?

 

[firefly_ris]

I live in a small rural town, nothing in particular to avoid. I mean, I guess I would avoid walking on the railroad tracks; that would probably be bad at least a few times per day.
