one time my freshman year me and my friend (both women) walked down park ave at midnight and were fine. i lived with little fear back then, but ive never had problems walking. some clark students will complain abt homeless asking for money and shit, but if that’s the worse to happen to them then boohoo. but yeah, just don’t walk alone at night, there’s a clark escort bus thing that can drive you from place to place at night if need be. walking down the streets immediately surrounding clark (charlotte, maywood and florence) even at night always feels safe to me, especially on weekends bc students will be all over. basically, don’t let the area deter you! it will be okay!
also my bf lives down main street a bit more towards dunkin, I don’t like walking that way after dark so he always drives me
also forgot to mention that there’s these lyft pass things where you can call a lyft within a mile radius or something to pick you up as well

Yeah I've been frequently to cities growing up and I'm from cali, so I am plenty used to homeless people shenanigans. I think I'm just nervous about actually LIVING in a city, but I'm likely just psyching myself out.
