be careful (but not paranoid) - wrigley field is chock full of miscreants who come to prey on tourists and the like.

I grew up nearby, it's a fun neighborhood & if you keep your eyes and ears open you should be fine, though.

Just for the record, I have lived at Fullerton between Central Park and Pulaski for a few years and I have NEVER not felt safe. I am a 24yr old blonde girl with a tendency to walk/ride around alone at night and I have never had a problem. The neighborhood is perfectly safe as long as you're not getting involved in gang activity (i.e. selling/buying drugs/weapons). I don't know how ya'll get anything done when you're so afraid of everything. PS I feel much less safe in Wrigleyville because that's where muggers go to target the rich drunk yuppies. Plus your neighbors are douchebags. Good luck in that hellhole of a neighborhood.

Oblivion and safety are not the same thing.
