stamford is safe compared to nyc and got a lot safer/more gentrified post covid. most gang activity is on the east side west side south end and cove. anywhere heavily retail is bound to get dicey at times. there have been some drug busts in the Glenbrook area and I think three people odeed in a house on Scofield ave in the fall. but there was also a drug bust this time last year on high ridge by the merit, which is sparse suburban mostly middle upper middle class. point being 99% of people in stamford, including glenbrook, are regular working and middle class people, but as a result of a high population density, one of your many many neighbors is bound to be up 2 something sticky. the most trouble you're going to find in the area you described are high schoolers selling carts or vandalizing something or something.
