Wow that sucks. I think I would be trying to find a new place to live.

When I was 20 my wife, infant daughter and I moved into this area which was lower rent. It seemed OK at the time we looked at it but after a couple months I was sitting in bed reading a book when I heard firecrackers and a reving engine. I thought to myself "those darn gangsters at the park ****** around".

What happened was a 19 year old kid in his Caprice was turning the corner and got shot a couple times, once in the head, while driving. His foot just mashed the accelerator and he accelerated until he hit a bus shelter and stopped. The car continued to just rev until someone shut it off.

It was shocking because Madison only saw maybe 2 murders a year at the time.

When lease renewal came up the management really wanted us to stay and even offered 50% off of rent. No dice baby! We moved and don't look back. The property crime I had done to me exceeded $2000 over the 12 months I was in that crap hole and on numerous occasions. It was like adding $200 a month to the rent.

I would assume you pack heat? I know I would.
