There has been a lot of violence lately. Usually in the businesses near by. I wouldn't go out at night spontaneously. You see the police drive by every so often. There have been robberies If you stay out of the way, you probably will be safe for the most part. The police respond when called. It would be safer if cops patrolled more frequently at night and occasionally during the day.

Most food is fast food, which is not healthy. Healthier food is more expensive. Not many bars and restaurants that are popular. Most popular restaurants and bars are in the county or away from the city.
