Murder

I don't particularly find it to be any type of hinderance in recovery. The fact that almost 100% of murder victims in New Orleans are criminals themselves is very telling. In other words, the "average Joe," in this city is relatively safe. As stated, unless you have a personal issue with crack cocaine...you should be just fine. Been living here my entire life...never ever been a victim of crime, at all. I did have my wallet pick-pocketed on Bourbon St. on Fat Tuesday in 1991, but, other than that, it's been smooth sailing for me in New Orleans....
