That’s fair, everyone’s experience is unique to them I guess. Maybe you had a unlucky encounter. I generally feel pretty safe around the area at any time of day/night. SF on the other hand, I definitely felt a bit like I had to be on guard most of the time.

I’ll never forget the fact that the lady in the Thai restaurant I visited literally locked the door and you had to knock in order to enter. Craziest thing I’ve ever seen. I feel safer wandering the streets of Delhi and Meerut in the early hours than SF at noon.
