Agree, surprised this happened there. A block up from the park is still pretty much the demarcation line for safe an unsafe imho. We need a transit line on fayette to improve quality of life in east Baltimore.

Anyone saying this is naive. That's 05 zone up there, you're mere blocks away from ddh

In daylight it's mostly ok, but whem dusk hits, let alone late night, be careful and stay in groups

Not naive. Have lived in southeast Baltimore since 2000. It's a night and day difference in and around the park.

Once you go a couple blocks north you're ddh whether you know it or not. I doubt a single yt redditor would voluntarily live (long term) more than a block of two above the park. (This doesn't count ppl who live there bc of budget limitations)

Yes, but even the areas north of the park are better than they were. Gentrification has pushed north.

It's been that way since roughly 2009 when I first moved to the city. It was the same when I left in 2019. I'm not even the least bit surprised, there's been several senseless murders of non-gang residents over that period of time there and elsewhere. Do not let the niceness of the day fool you, you still need to look over your shoulder all the time in that city. Glad I'm gone.
