What's Buena Vista like?

Once again I laid down the facts. You are just giving opinions. Now being from Oakland perhaps you are desensitized to violence, but name me one multimillion $ neighborhood in the US where someone (a human) gets BBQed in the neighborhood park.

The problem with Buena Vista Park is that it has a bunch of thick trees and bushes which create a natural hideout for scumbags and the homeless, much like parts of Golden Gate Park. I've never wanted to go into BV Park because of this. Dolores Park is just a flat grassy park and is really cool and doesn't try to be a little forest, and doesn't have the same skuzz factor. But really any park in any major urban area is sketch city after dark, in pretty much any country on earth, I remember being told to avoid a really nice park in Glasgow in the UK after dark because it had a reputation for dudes getting raped by other dudes.
