What's the probability of being shot in Oakland in a year as a white male? Esp if you don't have any associations with crime yourself.
I lived in both good, bad and transitioning neighborhoods and I feel like people over estimate how much impact this will have on life.
Fact is, shit happens everywhere. Happens more often where there is density. You can be mugged in a good part of town (well because that's where people with money are at) and bad part of town. Before I moved back to NYC, my wife would regularly get harassed in SOMA on the street walking to her job.
