What bad reputation, OP?

​

You may be hearing stories coming from Greenville, but that neighborhood is safer compared to Camden.

Anything is safer than Camden. After much in-depth research, the only city I found in the country worse than Camden is East St. Louis IL (not to be confused with st louis in MO).

Camden crime rate has been steadily decreasing. It's still in the top 20, but hasn't topped the list for some time now. I believe East St. Louis also experienced a significant decline in 2021 (East St. Louis is btw directly across a bridge from St. Louis MO. and their crime rates are fairly in tandem)

All St Louis residents comment how scared they get when they miss their exit and accidentally go over the bridge in to ESTL. Police recommend you go through all of the red lights and stop signs at night. It truly is a hell hole.
