<p>There are homeless people in New Haven. Some do congregate on New Haven green which is outside of the Old Campus. I don’t think I’ve ever noticed that they sleep there however.</p>
<p>But New Haven green is an integral part of Downtown so as you see the few homeless people, you also see the other parts of the city going to and fro. </p>
<p>But regardless, people will have to deal with their own levels of comfort. For me, there wasn’t any fear/apprehension whatsoever nor would I experience any if either of my daughters were to attend Yale. It’d be the same as walking the streets in Manhattan or waiting for a train in Chicago. Are either of these similar to walking in Princeton or Ann Arbor? No – but one wouldn’t think so either.</p>
