Yes. It’s closer to downtown than WUSTL so yes you’re in a city-ish area in a major city with crime issues.
If that’s a concern, then a lot of schools should be removed off your potential list.
If you have concerns, talk to the school. And yes both on and off campus, the student will need to be alert and have a birdie, etc in their hand at all times, not be looking at their screen but some would say that’s everywhere.
Good luck.
