I know that's scary. When I moved into a big city (and not like a city with suburban sprawl but I mean truly urban city), the way I saw crime so up close freaked me out for a bit. Crime really can happen anywhere. People complain that myneighborhood, which is actually really nice, has gone downhill, but that's not true. (They're just angry it's not all white anymore.)
Nevertheless, it's very scary when you hear gun shots or loud shouting or sirens, doesn't matter where you live. All any of us can do is always take precautions and try to be as safe as possible.
I use the Citizen Report app to stay up to date on crime and activity in my neighborhood. It tells me when there is a crash or a break in, as soon as another neighbor reports it. So it's very up to date. The only.problem is that it can be overwhelming at times.
