I was literally threatened by a knife at a bus stop in downtown today.
sucks. I'd never have dreamed of that happening. I hate this city.

I have lived in Hamilton most of my life, and I agree with you. I try to stay away from the downtown core unless I really need to go down there.

I just moved from the downtown core to dundas because I could not stand living down there.

They are trying to clean up the downtown core, and make it safer by adding more police officers to patrol it, I find it is improving some.

On the contrary, Mickey2012, I only dream of that happening. I think you should stop doing drugs.

I hope you're okay!! Hamilton is pretty sketchy in general. I actually prefer downtown to central Hamilton though. Downtown has police patrol and lots of pedestrians. Central Hamilton (or at least where I live) is like a ghost town. I hate waiting for the bus in the morning, I'm scared I'm going to get attacked.

Hope you're okay! I've heard it was bad, just didn't know it was that bad! Was it really that quiet with no one around?!

ok fine. 3 guys pointing a knife at me for money and my phone.
I successfully ran away, but suffered a punch in the face.
I was holding a lot of stuff too, so couldnt defend/attack, just ran away.

thats actually pretty scary

being the moron I am I probably would have tried to fight them with the switchblade I carry whenever I go downtown

would have backfired tremendously

I live near hess street, does that even count as downtown
