<p>Some places have more “isolated incidents” than others though. I’d feel safer in places that historically have had fewer such incidents. </p>
<p>Also, I agree that one must be alert at all times, but being alert when your house is already being broken into might not do much to stop the burglar from doing whatever he’s set on doing. Likewise, being alert on the street when some attacker is already chasing you might not do much either. You’re pretty much helpless in the first scenario, but you can avoid the latter by not being out in the streets late at night (but then you’ll be at home, at the mercy of burglars, oh well). I can’t imagine having to worry about going home at 3 am though, and I’m amazed this guy actually does do that-- go home by himself really late at night, often buzzed. </p>

What do you mean “multicultural urban environment”? I’m actually already in college, in a multicultural setting that’s much safer. Please don’t assume I come from a sheltered environment. Like I said, I grew up in Chicago, as in the inner-city. However, I’d like to avoid living in that environment when I can.</p>
<p>Do you know of a site that has the crime statistics for the colleges above?</p>
