I think it officially closes at 6:00. There's not a lot there, unless you look for it.
Maybe. I have a feeling people don't really adhere to a curfew in that hood though.

Pity the fool who underestimates the power and brutality of a Hmong street gang.

You don't need a list to tell you not to venture off into the south side of Chicago alone.

Does NY not have any "hoods"?

I lived in pine hills and the family moved to beautiful college park when i was 6
Pine hills was 75% white now its called crime hills by orlando residents andnits 75% black

Dont hate the messanger

Pine Hills is a slum located west of downtown Orlando. Mostly inhabited by drug dealers, bank robbers, and people with bleak or no hopes of making it out. Its nickname is "Crime Hills."1: Yeah, I drove through Pine Hills yesterday. 2: How the hell did you make it out alive

All that dumb most dangerous or most crime in american cities crap is basically 99% based on pine hills..which is an area that nobody outside pine hills even goes to..the rest of the city is quite crime free..with the exception of a seven mile stretch of south orange blossom trail
Orlando is a very safe city but please keep falling for the cherry picked stats...
Here is a video of pine hills during the day...night time is a whole different world

The best part about our respective online personas... I'm a white kid who actually grew up in the inner city and you're a suburban white kid who pretends to be black.
lol, I'm not a white person.

I grew up in Wash Heights, NYC, plantain city; there's a lounge less than half a mile from here where A-Rod, Big Papi, and Manny Ramirez chill(ed) at every now and then. This area was rough back in the 80s/early 90s, but after the Washington Heights riots, the area/savage thugs burned-out and there was a collective cease-fire (for the most part). Also, the conservative/Republican Dominican core took a stranglehold and (re)invested in the area/local businesses, keeping the thugs at bay and under control. The kingpins too smartened up their game. There's more whites and Asians moving into the area now too and they're loving the amenities; cheaper rent, all-time award-winning local ganjivity, all-time great "ethnic" food and restaurants, 24/7 grocery/convenient stores, and mad bitches. Even the Muslims like it here. Single dudes who could afford their own place AND pay to play ? Wash Heights is on-point.
Depends where in the Heights you're at too. Every few blocks is different because of all the diversity.
