I loved living in birdtown. One of the most walkable bits of town. If you lived in the city before you'll be fine. People talk about the east end of Lakewood like its skid row.

I’ve never lived in Lakewood! Just visited from time to time and heard it wasn’t the best but that’s with any city all areas aren’t the nicest. I’m in parma right now, been living here most of my life.

well, i have had people run up on me with guns for just standing on the corner multiple times.

"waiting for a friend" on the street corner and multiple different groups have accused me of trying to sell drugs on thier corner so like .yeah, it is pretty shit compared to the rest of lakewood.

ive also had a crack head crawl in my window while i was sitting in my living room.

I live in downtown lakewood in a store front, woke up to a drunk homeless man sleeping right infront on my apartment door in my hallway just a few weeks back. So these things happen everywhere. So my “nicer” side of lakewood has homeless people I see daily, drunks, and bad ass teenagers . So yeah all of lakewood has it problems .

I was a nightshift worker who walked home in the dark every day and never had any trouble. You must have horrible luck.

You seem like the worldly intelligent type who are in no way racist.

wonder what this has to do with race? seems like you have pre conceived notions about crack heads and guns.
