Reply to comment by some1saveusnow in Central Square Business Closings/Neighborhood Changes by fire_walk_with_m3

I used to live near Central, what do you mean by ‘increased wildness since the pandemic?’ Has crime risen that much in a couple of years? I used to be totally comfortable walking alone at night in that area, so what’s changed?

Long story short is that with the increased presence of unhoused in the boston area, some of it has made its way to central. Not sure if it’s reflected in crime stats but the feeling in the square has changed a bit. It’s been well commented on in this and the boston sub over the past 2 years
