You don't live in a very dangerous area, then.

I keep an eye on everyone, even a woman with a kid in a pram (assuming the pram isn't just an empty decoy) could try to mug you, people get desperate and chavs get violent. Always keep your head on a swivel, don't trust anyone at face value just because of their gender or what they look like.

I live near one of those areas. And while I'm weary of some shady women, it's quite a common trend that women get creative and men get brutish.

I'm more worried that the woman may pickpocket or deceive me first way, way before she pulls a weapon out on me.

It's not enough to point at a dangerous place and be like "see how bad people are?" but you also need to be be granular and observe the trends in behavior.

That said, I have been warned of a gang of three men and one woman who have been accused of mugging folks in the neighborhood. But even that is rare to hear. Will it ever be three women and one man?

Edit to fix autocorrect.
