I live on Gary. It is a scary place to walk around at because you never know if you are going to be the next one to get jumped or beat. There is at least one fight a day there. Some of the fights are over something as little as a cigarrette. There are gangs there. For instance, Bloods, Crips, The Familia, and the Mexican Maffia. Who wants to go to a place where there is violence everywhere. Just this past Thursday, Sept 6, 2007, there was a tour and there was police everywhere because of fighting on our campus. That is bad on us. There are people who are there to get an education and have a hard time doing so. There is substance abuse and alcohol as well. Gary, is it safe or not? You tell me....
Pros: Education
Cons: Fights
