do not listen to this person. it got “sketchy” outside of downtown chicago? pffft! someone needs to get out more often.
people unfamiliar with how to move and operate in america are absolutely not ready for our suburbs and exurbs where the real danger is…
i think their experience of "chicago got scary for me" is legitimate, but it has more to do with not knowing who the threats are than the existence of said threats. chicago is in a massive struggle between the police and people who would like to not be killed by the police. out in the country side… lowkey the police won
Yeah, the comment sounds a lot like an American tourist being afraid to step a single foot off of their beach resort in Cancun. In these instances, the fear comes more from the lack of experience, and not knowing some of the biggest pitfalls that locals avoid to stay safe. Things that the locals won’t even think about, because avoiding it is just so engrained as habit.
