Well, if you live anywhere near U/C, you know that we have a huge police presence now. They have been instrumental in reducing crime, and, make no mistake about it, they know who are thugs are, what they drive, who their homies are...and, they are tracked well. I am very grateful to our community police officers in Faires Farms. They have been diligent in cleaning up the area. One of my co-workers just moved to an apt complex near me and asked me one day..."what's up with all the cops??" Ha, ha, ha, told him to be very happy, they are our protection right now.
I am not a fan of south Charlotte just because I feel out of place. I don't have the income to support the "look" and certainly am not that concerned with maintaining that "look", so, I definitely would not fit.
I am much more comfortable around other cultures which is primarily what U/C is made up of.
