Its nothing compared to Compton, but considering that I live within 5 miles of like 7 projects, and I go to school with mostly the kids from there, and I find needles, drug bags, and pill bottles wherever I go most of the time, its pretty ghetto. Along with the cops being incredibly crooked along with the politics being in serious debt and only caring about people with money in the city, I'd consider it to be pretty ghetto.
