In a weeks' time there were fifty crimes in the neighborhood; five violent and forty-five property type crimes like grand theft auto and breaking and entering.

But if you want to get the real story here, you're going to have to get on a bus, hop on a plane, or drive down there and experience the neighborhood for yourself.
