Outside of a small window each weekend, the South Side is no different than Lawrenceville or Shadyside.

Stop letting the clientele of a half dozen shitty bars ruin your perception of a neighborhood.

honestly the biggest issue with south side right now is all of the construction choking traffic - just getting in and out is a bit of a challenge

I mean recent shenanigans aside, that's just not true at all. Those 3 neighborhoods are all very different in their own ways. I loved hanging out in Southside when I first turned 21. Now in my late 20s I strongly prefer Lawrenceville. Different vibes.

I'm in my 40s and rarely out after dark.

During the week though, I'm on Carson daily, and it just feels like a bigger, safer version of Walnut St.

I know this sub in particular is SUPER east end focused, but there are other cool places.

In fairness I don't go into the city much at all anymore. Any neighborhood.
