Craiglist Item-Utica Ave and Crown Street(Crown Heights) (college, live)

[latikeriii]

Hello,

I posted a microwave on Craiglist and agreed to drop it off. Someone replied to my post asking if I would be able to drop it off at Utica Ave and Crown St in Crown Heights. I only posted it for $25 so it's not a big risk but is that a bad area? I lived in bad areas before so i'm not really worried but I still want to make sure I don't deliver it to an area where I may not get the money(of course this could happen anywhere but it's all about percentages).

Thanks,

thats the hood...i used to chill a block away on utica and montgomery street a lot in my college days. its not bad to the point where i wouldnt go over there at all, but i definitely wouldnt go over there to conduct a money transaction with somebody i didnt know.
