Riding your bicycle is often dangerous for the same reason. Plus as a small female, you can be pushed into a van and kidnapped pretty easily. That may sound really ridiculously paranoid, but this was attempted a few years ago on a teenage girl in CA. I remember it vividly from the news reports. And people wonder why I am all about personal safety. Asia in general is all about fat wads of cash, but as time marches forward, even China is purchasing on credit cards. They just pay it off every month! I'd rather have my extra cash in an ING account making interest, rather than in my wallet doing nothing. But that's just me. It’s true.

This is because a girl was hit and killed on that block. Of course, nowhere else in the division has sidewalks and street lights, I guess somebody has got to get killed on every block in order for anything to change.
