We'll just have to agree to disagree. Good but not a must go IMO.

the funny thing about this question is that almost every neighborhood in LA has some click that claims it...
doesn't mean it's "dangerous" to go there...

Yeah you have to go deep into places to even run into trouble now and days. Still I'd leave your all red or blue shoes at home.

You didn't hear the story about the special needs kid who was shot over his all red shoes it was in the news. They asked him to take them off he refused walked back to the car wash he was at with his mom and they shot him. So yeah if they want it can get ugly. Of course it's not like it was in the 80/90 but it's still going on.

yeah. i just feel like in order to get that authentic food you have to visit the 'urban' neighborhoods. you're not going to find a legit mexican spot in the tourists areas. at least that's what i do when i want to eat at some good spots.

Huge difference between urban and a place where I'm worried about the color of my shirt.
Of course the tourist places aren't the best, I was in no way suggesting that.
Just saying I don't need to go somewhere where I'm legit worried about getting banged on to get some wings. LA ain't like that anymore

If you don't go looking for trouble you will be ok. I used to love red top and black jeans in high school because they match Jordans. Two best friends lived in the hood, off San Pedro in South Central and Crenshaw and National City in Lmt Park. Never had an issue hanging out with them.

i get what are you are saying but you have to just not display fear when you go to those places. more often then not people sense the fear just looking at someone who looks like they are out of place. the best thing to do is be alert and don't display fear

San Fernando Valley is the middle class LA experience. Everyone lives there because its cheaper and commute to work.
