In a few weeks, I'll be moving out of my parent's house and to a college dorm in Richmond. I'm very excited for this, as I've been living in the suburbs for most of my life, but at the same time I'm a bit worried. I've heard that there was a lot of crime in Richmond, and there has been 2 shootings in the past few weeks on campus. Yet, at the same time, I want to explore the city, especially during the night. So, what I'm asking is, how can I not be targeted by criminals, and explore the city at the same time? Is being in a large city really as dangerous as I have heard?
