I lived there for 5 years (2002-2007) and basically if you don't hang out with gangs, stay away from bad neigbourhoods (stay away from the North, it sucks and that is where a lot of the bad stuff happens), you should be fine. Also around Commonwealth, try not to walk outside late at night. I was never a huge fan of that area. University area is actually a pretty cool area to go to Pubs/Restaurants. But yeah, avoid the north......bad crowd in general.
