I would say in my apartment. PM me for my address and you can drop her off.

Dogtown in the city. It's boundaries are Manchester Rd, Oakland Ave, McCausland Ave (one stretch is McCausland, another stretch is Skinker, so the map may say Skinker), and I *think* Kingshighway.

It is a safe neighborhood and is about 10 minutes to Kingshighway (that's no highway, all side streets)

I should probably point out that "Dogtown" is the collective name of 3 city neighborhoods; Hi-Point, Clayton-Tamm, and Franz Park. I live in Franz Park.

Why isn't Dogtown an official neighborhood? I've always wondered that.

You always hear "Dogtown", you don't usually hear "Hi-Point", "Clayton-Tamm", and "Franz Park"

Id keep her out of the city all together. I wouldn't let my wife live down there. She can go out to south county and be in a great area with quick access to the city. Or Clayton, as others have said would be good too but will be more pricy.

Others will argue that the city is fine, and it probably is, if you like looking over your shoulder all the time.

That's a little harsh don't you think? I'd say at least 65% of the city is perfectly safe.
