Some are fairly complete communities. Very few oustside the really old part of the inner-city have walkable mainstreets though. Most are served by auto-oriented strip malls or regional big box complexes.
However the newest subdivisions are much more complete than those built in the 70s, 80s and 90s, and are certainly far more dense. Compare Scenic Acres to Mohogany for example.
Maybe you haven't been close to downtown lately but the inner-city is hardly over-run with "crack-whores and bums".
