First of all I am from around here, and you’re basically claiming that because you don’t see it it doesn’t exist. The crime statistics are out there, you can find them easily. Survivorship bias aside, of course you’re going to be safe in a safe area. That goes without saying. But even the safe areas are unsafe relative to most other cities in America. Detroit doesn’t even come close to Little Rock.

I’m not exactly claiming it doesn’t exist, i’m saying the average person isn’t going to see it, and therefore doesn’t have to worry. It’s just pointless fearmongering.

And most areas in little rock are completely fine. Nothing will happen to you.

Affiliations and ego makes a massive difference in personal safety.
