It is ashamed that there are some neighborhoods close to my town where several sites, including a school that dates back to the turn of the century that has recently closed down and is ripe for detecting can't be detected safely as they are right in the middle of a really bad part of town where you would likely be robbed and possibly beatup or worse so that they could get your detector. I drive by these sites and just know that nobody has detected them in the last 20 years because if they attempted to, they would have risked being robbed or worse. These are the type of neighborhoods where when you drive on the street they are sizing you up and looking for easy victims to prey on. The only foot traffic are protected gang members.
Not much that anyone could ever do about it but I am sure that others have experienced this in big cities as well. Too bad that some of those neighborhoods couldn't somehow be made safe again so that we could detect there. I would even be happy just to get some nice photos of some of these old buildings/sites, but they would take my camera!
