I am thinking about a move from St.Louis to Hamtramck

Your car will be broken into. There is a rash of car-thefts every couple years...pretend you're living in Chicago.

I lived on Caniff just east of Conant, moved out in 2007 because in the previous six months:

a) Break-ins, my place was attempted, next door neighbors robbed.
b) My car stolen parked in front of my house.
c) Across the street police with weapons drawn swarm house for god knows what, not nice.
d) A nearby rental home occupied by scum, police had to be called to break up a large group of ghetto rats fighting, looked like a mini riot.

I lived there almost 10 years, was nice at first but the last few years saw rapid decline. Didn't feel safe anymore. I don't know if things have gotten worse or better over there since.

p.s. forgot to add e) a friend was robbed by gunpoint walking home from a bar at Conant and Caniff.
