bonwich Posted February 2, 2010 Share Posted February 2, 2010 http://www.walletpop.com/insurance/article...me-areas/875986 At least we are up there with some of the best colleges in the country! More GIGO. Gotta love these "surveys" with absolute crap as their background data. Look at the "neighborhood" for which we make #3 on the list. Aside from the highrises and the student housing adjacent to Chaifetz, I'm pretty sure the total "population" of that area rapidly approaches zero. (Not to mention: It gets drastically undercounted, since the students are most likely not included since it's not permanent residence.) Couple that with the worst-security Metrolink station in the system and you get some badly skewed data, to say the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, we all know this number is hundreds to thousands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quickdraw Posted February 3, 2010 Share Posted February 3, 2010 It seems a "neighborhood" is very narrowly defined; so I fail to see why several of the floors of Griesiedieck don't individually make the list! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RB2.0 Posted February 3, 2010 Author Share Posted February 3, 2010 It is a strange way to measure the "neighborhood".

However, anyone who has attended SLU knows it's a right of passage to either a. get held up or b. have your car broken in togetting your car broken into can be hard to avoid sometimes, just keep shite out of plain sight. avoiding getting held up is much easier. a) don't be a chick. don't be a *****. i never had any issues until i moved to soulard as a senior. car broken into twice. the second time i actually caught the guy doing it. should have seen his face. i was taking the trash out at like 10 in the morning and had just twisted my ankle the night before. i tried to chase him but didn't get too far. probably the best thing for both of us; i'm a big fan of citizens' justice. note: i am a SKINNY guy.
