Downtown Baltimore is a lively business and entertainment hub known for its theater district, with venues like the 1914 Hippodrome, as well as Royal Farms Arena for sports and big-name concerts. Irish pubs, diners and seafood restaurants dot the area, while stalls at bustling Lexington Market have local treats like crab cakes. Port Discovery Children’s Museum features inventive hands-on exhibits and a sports stadium

Most of the violent crime then was confined to the inner city residential areas of East and West Baltimore. The harbor area, the Howard Street shopping district and Little Italy were relatively safe - relative to today, that is. Today, you truly aren't safe anywhere, even during the day. Flash mobs and gun play and increased racial tension/polarization are a sad reality today.

Newark had the same problem after the '67 riots. The city was on the dscline prior but the riots was the death blow. I'm old enough to remember downtown Newark was so busy at night you almost couldn't move until after 10 PM. But with the rise of the suburbs and the malls people didn't need to shop downtown and after 6 o'clock it would empty out. A damn shame.

I don't remember it being dangerous downtown back in the early 1970s, even into the early 1980s. Most of the serious crime was in residential neighborhoods outside the downtown area. As mentioned in the video, the shopping district was open a couple nights a week and I remember shopping in the evening downtown in the '60s and '70s. My wife's folks would come up to visit from southern VA to see Orioles games in the evening at Memorial Stadium, then we'd go down to the Inner Harbor to eat at Phillips or Connelly's restaurants along Pratt St. This was in the early 1980s.

Did you listen to documentary at all? I'm sure you weren't on the streets where the most crime occurred. Certain blocks were safe. Certain other blocks weren't. Thats how it is now for the most parts in inner cities. The most crime-ridden area in LA is downtown LA with the homeless encampments happening and just a block over there are the finest restaurants and beautiful high rise apartments. I mean idk Baltimore now but it seems from what I hear it's pretty bad.

1972 - Baltimore, Safe at Night? 2022 - Baltimore, Not Safe at All - Night or Day I worked downtown in the 1980s and 1990s and you did not feel necessarily unsafe. Willie Don knew that public safety (or at least the perception thereof) was absolutely necessary for a thriving downtown. Around 2000 it began to feel more sketchy. Today, I would never go to downtown Baltimore because it is not safe.

Baltimore has always been a very pocketed city, with certain areas being dangerous and other areas being just fine. From what I have heard, the waterfront was legitimately dangerous in the era before Harborplace. Since then it has been perfectly fine. Any of the other gentrified sections of the city will be fine. You just need to know the areas that are safe and those which aren't. Generally, most people won't have any business being in the unsafe areas in the first place.

Fast forward to late 2023 and her words have only been reinforced many many many times over. Baltimore, the one major city that makes Detroit look good.

I don't get people who act like that. I'm only slightly younger than you, and I've NEVER been afraid of Baltimore City. There's no reason to be, at all. When people get shot, or beat up, in "The Hood," it's usually because they wronged someone, and were looking over their shoulder when it happened. Random people don't get assaulted, or accosted. If you mind your own damned business, you'll be fine in Baltimore.

I think downtown has gotten worse that's why most of the good store's closed their business hect co. Movie theaters and including Hopkins plaza don't put a bandage on it face it the crime got worse.

Just say you're a bigoted racist. I saw them interviewing white women in those "unsafe" areas too. So whites weren't out there committing burglaries, robberies and such. Baltimore had 1.5 million people then. All crimes were NOT restricted to just Blacks.

The guy that stated that Bolton Hill was Crime Free and safe. Well my brother and I will rehab an apartment on off of John Street. The deli on the corner across from the elementary school come was actively selling drugs out of the establishment and there was a police car that set out in front of the store. The reason this is known, was because they offered to sell my brother some drugs when he went in there to pick up lunch.

Born in Baltimore City, 1950. Parents bugged out in 1959 (taking us kids with them, of course, "White Flight"), and when the black tide reached me in the mid nineties, I said good-bye and good riddance to the Socialist State of Maryland all together. Anyone who stays deserves whatever misfortune befalls them.

I left Towson in '89 to go out of state for college, I never went back; Maryland stopped being where I was "from" in '89. I still have family there, whenever I go for a visit I only ever feel an intense dislike for the area. I will never live in the Baltimore area again, not for any reason.

What about Maryland, makes it a "socialist state" as you say? Do you even know what you're talking about? I'm going to guess that the answer is NO. A very definitive NO.

​@@MatewanMassacre With the absolutely massive redistribution of wealth to Baltimore to keep that hole subsidized, whether it's Maryland taxpayers paying for Baltimore's police and firefighters salaries, the city school teachers salaries, the gigantic unaccountable welfare programs that exist in the city, including dedicated buses just to take one person to and from their job early in the morning and late in the afternoon, to say there isn't a level of socialism to this equation is just foolhardy. You go from neighborhood to neighborhood in Baltimore, at least half the residents are entirely unemployed, reliant on welfare paid by Maryland taxpayers from all across the state, and just loiter on streets and in front of businesses and homes. If that's a healthy society to you, I got some oceanfront property in Kansas I'd like to sell you.
