I agree with loveduke22. Duke and surrounding areas are like every other college and town in terms of safety. It’s not wonderland and it’s not Gotham City. You have to use common sense but you don’t need to worry about the over the top stereotypical sketchy people everywhere trying to mug you type of scenario.

As for partying and drugs, it’s not as bad as stereotypes make it out to be. Duke is somewhat heavy on the partying, but it’s not like people will shove alcohol down your throat and stuff pills up your nose or anything. In the end, it’s all your choice.
