On my street alone, which isn't big, the top part near the bars are fine, nice houses, even 500k townhouses, but less than a block down it is poverty, and then public housing (which is nicer than my apartment). None of them really go to the hipster bars in the area, so there isn't much interaction, but is gets pretty seedy looking at night. Used to live in downtown cleveland, near W. 12th, and it was real bad. Welfare handouts across the street, and execution style double murder in the park across from the embassy hotel, etc. Wouldn't be caught dead walking past W 13th at night.

Looking to move a lot closer to Cleveland... at least the Broadview Heights area to cut the commute in half, but will probably just wait until my lease expires next August.

iclfan2;1516118 wrote:Ahh you are correct East. I'm not sure I'm "grossly" exaggerating it. The park is now nice, and anything from the front of reserve square to downtown is fine, but once you go the other way it is full of homeless people, government apartments, and police there constantly, as in daily. I never had an issue, but it definitely fits the "bad area" subject of this thread.

Pick6;1516122 wrote:correct. if we are talking east, you arent exaggerating anything lol. For work, I park right next to the crazy horse near 13th and st. clair. you can def tell an immediate difference between there and downtown.

BoatShoes;1516272 wrote:I disagree with you and Iclfan2. Over by the Crazy Horse and that Glass government building where the P00rz go to enroll in food stamps, etc. is fine. If you don't like icky poor people maybe it bothers you but it's not any more "dangerous" than Public Square. Perfectly fine to walk to the Crazy Horse at night.

Take a drive down St. Clair if you want to find a place where you don't want to walk around at night IMHO.
