Unless it's TERRIBLY bad in a certain location, letting fear and crime dictate the way one lives is sad, IMO.

Some people sure do. Some people let every little thing dominate their lives.
Personally, I like being able to go about my daily routine without being asked for change, watching some crackhead shoot up/freak out, or see some homeless guy taking a dump. Would I live downtown if those things didn't exist (or were at say, 1995 levels of prevalence)? Maybe, but I still like being away from the density. I'm not really concerned about the crime... but its definitely not a selling point, that's for sure.
