Fun Stuff > CHATTER
Anyone know if Roxbury Crossing (near Boston, MA i hear) is scary?

Bunker Hill isn't all that bad. It's due south of the sketchier parts of Somerville and most of the really rotten stuff on the Orange Line is on the south end of it.

I can't remember what burb it was actually but a friend of mine from high school moved to some place outside of Boston where some former roomates/friends he had made out there stabbed him multipile times and then burned down his apartment while he was still alive to try to make it look like an accident. So my impression of the Boston area is basicly that some of the people are murderous and others are a tad on the farside of stupid. I think that covers any area really though.

The northern part of the orange line isn't that bad at all... even Sullivan Station, contrary to Jon's belief. I've lived near Wellington, Malden, and Sullivan (buses went to all 3 from my house) my whole life, practically, and it's never been a problem. Once you get past downtown crossing, things start to get sketchy towards Roxbury, JP, and Dorchester, but even Green Street station isn't terrible. It lets you off in an okay neighborhood. And I've also never had any problem at Forest Hills even though it's in Dorchester.
Every neighborhood has it's good and bad parts. It's not really fair to say "Stay off the orange line." Then you could suggest to stay off the blue line because Maverick is kinda sketchy, but Revere Beach is cool and so is Wonderland.
However, to assist the original poster, Roxbury Crossing IS scary. That's the T station that has the most shootings, stabbings, and robberies.

Yep! I'm still alive and more then slighly relocated. I'm not sure if it's the entirety of the east coast but so far for me there's a sad lack of conifers. East Coast, your tree's that are too wimpy to survive the winter with out your sap hiding make me miss my home.
