Safety around 53rd Street?

as gracello said, use common sense… chicago’s a city and it’s never safe to be stupid at night.

</p>

<p>I grew up in Chicago though, and some parts of the city are definitely less safe than others. For example, I’d feel totally comfortable walking around drunk at 3 am on Halsted in Boystown on a weekend night. There are still a lot of people walking around at that time.</p>

in terms of breaking in at night, it’s generally a lot less common to have break-ins at night than during the day, since at night, people are home!

Good point-- you just can’t ever feel safe anymore, well, especially in that area.</p>

dont stress out too much, but be actively smart

Being vigilant about your surroundings could sometimes help you get out of dangerous situations but not all the time. </p>

<p>Btw, how do you know if someone’s suspicious-looking? I mean, if you were a robber, wouldn’t you try to be inconspicuous?</p>
