    I mean, I don’t base my impression of a real city from its fictional version or I’d have never set one foot in Baltimore due to The Wire.

        London is a lot worse in that respect. The first time I saw the Westminster Bridge in London in person, I was surprised to not see any Cybermen walking across it.

          I submit that you definitely stayed in the “nice” areas. I’ve been there many times. The crime rates and infrastructure decay there is … well known. A friend of mine (who can’t afford the “nice areas” but who is by no means poor) was robbed and had her car broken into her first week there. The problems have continued since. My sister also lived there 20 years ago. It’s only gotten worse.
