Go, stay aware

“Go. Downtown and the adjacent historic Lafayette Park neighborhood offer a secure, well-patrolled environment anchored by state government offices, historic canopy roads, and community parks. Exercise routine urban awareness at night around bus transfer points and parking garages, but overall violent crime risk for visitors is low.”

Scores are safety-driven: recent crime levels and local news, plus Census data on income and poverty, housing, education and household make-up, and access to vehicles, internet and health coverage. Walk and bike scores are shown separately and do not affect the safety score. A guide, not a guarantee. Neighborhood outlines come from official city and US Census boundary data.
