Then again, 818 hasn't made it to Atlanta yet...
Actually I've been to Hotlanta a few times (I have brothers and a sister who live down there) and I was more concerned about the traffic than I was about crime but like any large city there are a few rough spots. I think teams should be a bit more mindful of their kids possibly wandering off, that's for sure.
Mostly I'm just put off that the police department would doctor numbers so they can attract events. Not very professional.
