I've mentioned before that I live just a bit outside the boundaries of official Yaletown but there's a new SRO at the corner of Richards and Helmcken and the residents gather outside to to be with their friends. Walked by the building last week and a guy was literally laying on the sidewalk on his front right in front of the group. I asked them if we should call the ambulance and his friends (I assume) said, "nah, he's fine". This is right next to a park where I was at meeting my cousin and her daughter. These aren't "bad areas" - these are middle/upper class neighborhoods.
