Well there ya go, I don't know Brooklyn all that well, lol. I know Queens very well. I just know that there are some Jews in Crown heights, and the parts I've been to didn't seem so bad. I guess I was in the okay area.

It's hard to give a representation of a place over the internet, especially with youtube videos. The areas that don't have them have a disadvantage when it comes to this, but there are many of places near as bad, as bad, or worse than those places that you may have never even heard about.

Another thing is the actual crime stats themselves, my area has a big disadvantage, as the most dangerous areas don't report the numbers correctly, if at all. Cleveland misreported by 45 murders and regularly reports less of the other crime categories than the numbers they actually have, I have proof of this. Even with that Cleveland was rated as the 8th most dangerous in the country. Another is East Cleveland, a separate city which many of you probably haven't heard much about, this city regularly has a murder rate as high as Detroit, and would rival places like Camden and Chester PA in crime rate if the numbers were actually reported correctly. Youngstown also reports the other crime categories much lower than they actually are. Lorain, OH is a rough small city outside of Cleveland which shows near average crime stats, yet it's actually 2-3 times higher than average, I also have proof of this. Then there's Cleveland suburbs in the same situation. The odd thing is this is the only area of the country that I've seen that's AS corrupt with this as it is. I don't want it to be bad, but it's frustrating when the real numbers never come out and we never know what they actually are, let alone people outside the area.

Nope, EC is a suburb of Cleveland. My mom was born there in 1960. Back than it was mostly middle class whites and blacks. Now it is a high crime, high poverty area, and rundown. Its about 94% black and 5% white now. Alot of Clevelanders would like to see it be annexed by the city of Cleveland.
