<p>i love yale but am thinking about princeton still, also harvard. i really don’t like the area of new haven too much. kids at harvard struck me as studying more during the overnite visits.</p>
<p>The areas surrounding Yale was everything I wanted, from the restaurants (great Thai and sushi!!!) to the shops. Even though I was walking around late at night, I didn’t feel threatened or unsafe at all.</p>
<p>Of course, I haven’t seen the other parts of New Haven, but every city has its slums.</p>
