[–] Justas@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago (1 child) My small addition to the list is that the surrounding green spaces were usually poorly lit and created lots of opportunities for muggers to hide once it got dark. In winters it gets dark early, so winters were a dangerous time. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Demdaru@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (1 child) Oh, yeah. A lot of bushes also, the tall ones in which you could overall easily hide. Where I lived, these green spaces were also different heights. Now it was somewhat safe where I was (in a "nobody shits in their own nest" way) but I've seen a few folk who upset more difficult people and...yeah. Pretty much nowhere to go safely. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Justas@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 year ago Yep. Despite large buildings, overall density ends up pretty small so you often don't meet a lot of people when on a walk, which increases feelings of danger. permalink fedilink source parent
