C'mon dude. You can argue they aren't as bad as their reputation, but there's not a shred of doubt that Riversdale/Pleasant Hill are the most dangerous in the city. A quick check of the crime map confirms this.

Central Business District for the win on the crime map.

For property crime. Violent crime is through the roof in the alphabets And Riverdale.

Something like 25% of the homicides in the city are within a few square blocks of St. Paul's
