Crime in Bucks Co
I was wondering if there was any real crime or shady areas in Bucks County. I've heard things about Bristol Twp developing some dangerous hoods....

Bristol's not so great, you're right. The rest of Bucks isn't too bad at all. Crime of the petty sort exists, but murders and rape, although surely they have and do occur, present no threat to people considering a move to the area. (Bristol being the possible exception).

Crime in Bucks County? If you're obsessed about looking for it I guess, then yes...it's there. Your odds of being a victim, not so much.

I would steer clear of some parts of Bristol and the Bristol Twp section of Levittown/Croydon.

I live in Bristol Twp. Frankly I think people see minorities and think crime. I always feel safe around here. Bristol Borough gets the same bad rap, and I find it to be a very peaceful, quiet, safe little town. I love Bristol, can you tell?

As far as being a victim of random crime, i would say no but that whole stretch of river between Morrisville and Bensalem seems to make the news once a week with one of their denizens getting into some trouble in the city or some sort of sting busting some biker gang for meth/coke/weed.
