Er, kinda wish you checked with us before committing to that area if concerned about safety. Not the worst area, but far from good.

As far as your car, you can do some things to dissuade thieves. First, get wheel locks. While not foolproof, it helps. Gorilla is one brand that’s common. Secondly, I know it’s old school, but get The Club. And lastly, never leave anything of value inside.

Thank you for your suggestions! I just left contracts in Memphis and Little Rock, so this isn't my first encounter with rough places, but it's good to know what the area is like according to locals before I get there.

Good to know you’ve lived in similar places. That experience helps. Those cities are generally more dangerous than New Haven, with roughly double the crime rate.
