Lynne: Peterson’s Not Safe @ All

Lynne: Good heavens. Peterson's Grocery isn't even safe during the day any more. I wouldn't dare venture down there at night. I stopped in yesterday afternoon after work and a young man was pacing back and forth across the driveway talking on his cell phone, right in the lane of travel. I honked my horn at him. He flipped me off and kept his pace. When I finally got around him and parked, his brother started shouting obscenities at me from his parked car about two spots down from mine. They were both sitting in the car when I went to leave. I had to have another male customer walk me out to my car. Scary!

Question: Are there any parts of your INW town that you consider unsafe during the day? At night?
