Anyone who claims that the College Hill area is unsafe is frankly a prissy pampered preppy (apologies to those who graduated from preparatory schools). There are parts of Easton that you don’t want to be walking around after dark – the west ward comes to mind – but there is no reason for a student to be anywhere near there. If the sight of two black men standing around conversing makes you start to sweat then perhaps you would be better off staying in your gated community and getting an online degree. Otherwise, downtown Easton and College Hill should prove perfectly safe to anyone who uses half a brain, doesn’t go shopping for crack cocaine and other illicit drugs, and doesn’t go walking alone and drunk after 2 am.
