nodnod I had a bit of a problem recently because one of the classes I’m taking can only be reached, when using public transit, through corridors that all read to me like nearly perfect places to opportunistically assault or mug someone, and I’m in an at-risk population (this occurs in a neighborhood where several members of that population have been murdered there in the last two years, and a high number of assaults take place there as well). Conversely, in Sydney I was mostly fine in neighborhoods locals considered rough and necessary to avoid—it was just abundantly clear that the beaten path wouldn’t be trouble, no matter how many scary stories I’d heard about the place.
