The hospitals in Cincinnati are smack dab in the middle of the geto! You have to dodge whores, drug dealers and junkie beggers (they have registered beggers there). If one goes to a Reds or Bengals game they must run the gauntlet for almost a mile from parking to the gate. In both cases we are talking some serious danger, robberies and/or rapes are common, as in DAILY occurance. One can choose not to go to a sporting event, but many times one can not choose to avoid the hospital.
And there is the WalMart parking lot, statistically more dangerous than deployment to Afganistan.
Most of us do not live in the bowl of cherries Central Indiannia seems to be.
