Areas to Avoid / Crime, Dallas

I'M GOING TO TELL IT ALL...READ AND PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO WHAT I AM TELLING YOU. BEWARE!!! BEWARE!!! BEWARE!!! I RECENTLY HAD TO RELOCATE BACK TO DALLAS FROM ANOTHER STATE, DUE TO A FAMILY EMERGENCY. I ALMOST MOVED UP TO THE FAR NORTH DALLAS AREA - FRISCO TO BE EXACT, BUT I MOVED TO DALLAS TO BE CLOSER TO A FEW PEOPLE THAT I KNOW. I SIGNED A 1 YEAR LEASE - I TRULY REGRET IT.

LET ME TELL YOU, I AM NOT USE TO LIVING LIKE THIS -- BELIEVE "ALL" THE BAD COMMENTS LISTED ABOVE, LIVING IN CERTAIN AREAS OF DALLAS IS ALL THAT AND MORE. I AM AFRICAN-AMERICAN AND WOULD NOT RECOMMEND THIS AREA TO ANYONE. I HAVE ALWAYS LIVED THE SUBURBAN LIFE, THIS IS NOT FOR ME AND I CANNOT WAIT UNTIL MY LEASE EXPIRES, STILL HAVE 5 MORE MONTHS. I TRUST NO-ONE, BLACK OR WHITE. ***SEGREGATION AND RACISM IS VERY MUCH ALIVE!!!

I HAVE NOT EVEN BEEN IN TEXAS LONG, I DON'T KNOW MANY PEOPLE, I REFUSE TO ESTABLISH ANY TYPE OF RELATIONSHIP WITH NEIGHBORS AROUND HERE, AND FOR PEOPLE TO KNOCK ON MY DOOR ASKING IF THEY CAN TAKE OUT MY TRASH, ASKING ME FOR A RIDE, ASKING IF I SMOKE WEED, ASKING IF I HAVE A FEW DOLLARS FOR GAS IS SOME SCARY, HOOD *** -- MAKES ME FEEL AS IF THEY THINK I HAVE MONEY AND MAY TRY TO ROB AND/OR CAR JACK ME SOME DAY. I NOTICED A MAN STARRING AT ME EVERY MORNING, WHEN I'D LOOK TO LET HIM KNOW THAT I'M AWARE OF MY SURROUNDINGS, HE WOULD WAVE HIS HAND. CREEPS, FREAKS, DRUG ADDICTS, DRUG DEALERS, MURDERERS AND MORE, IF THIS IS A REFLECTION OF HELL, I WANT NO PARTS OF IT. I HATE GOING SHOPPING NOW, BECAUSE IT SEEMS LIKE PEOPLE STARE WHEN I CARRY BAGS IN MY APARTMENT.

I HAVE TO SAY THIS, WHERE I COME FROM, WE DON'T KNOCK ON OUR NEIGHBORS DOOR BEGGING, ESPECIALLY FOR MONEY. I AM SO TEMPTED TO BREAK MY LEASE, BUT I DON'T WANT TO HAVE A PROBLEM RENTING SOMEPLACE ELSE. THERE WAS A MURDER OVER HERE -- THE SURPRISING PART, I HEARD NO POLICE SIRENS. A RESIDENT TOLD ME ABOUT THE MURDER, IT'S LIKE SOMETHING OUT OF A HORROR MOVIE GONE BAD. WHEN A HORROR MOVIE GOES BAD, YOU KNOW YOU'RE IN THE PITS OF HELL. IF YOU WANT TO READ ABOUT SOME OF THE MADNESS AND VERIFY THE INFORMATION FOR YOURSELF GOOGLE DALLAS CRIME BLOG. I USE TO LIVE IN THE FAR NORTH DALLAS AREA -- ABOUT 15 YEARS AGO, I WILL TELL YOU, THINGS HAVE TRULY CHANGED.

MY WARNING TO ALL PEOPLE, BLACK, ASIAN, HISPANIC, INDIAN, ETC...DO NOT MOVE TO THE GHETTOS OF DALLAS, YOU WILL COME OUT BETTER PAYING A FEW EXTRA DOLLARS PER MONTH IN RENT BY MOVING NORTH. IF WHAT I'M ABOUT TO TELL YOU WON'T DETER YOU, THEN I DON'T KNOW WHAT WILL. GO ONLINE AND READ THE DEANNA COOK STORY, LISTEN TO HER 911 CALL. DEANNA COOK IS A TEXAS WOMAN WHOM WAS FOUND DEAD 2 DAYS AFTER HER 911 CALL. THIS WILL GIVE YOU A GLIMPSE INTO THE 911 SYSTEM IN THE GHETTO'S OF DALLAS. THAT WOMAN WAS IN THE PROCESS OF BEING MURDERED AS SHE CALLED 911, THE POLICE TOOK 50 MINUTES TO GET TO HER HOUSE AND BEFORE THEY WENT TO HER HOUSE, THEY STOPPED AT A 7-11 FOR SOMETHING TO DRINK. I HOPE YOU PAID ATTENTION TO WHAT I SAID, DEANNA WAS FOUND DEAD 2 DAYS AFTER THAT 911 CALL. NOW WHAT DOES THAT TELL YOU?

DON'T GET ME WRONG, CRIME IS EVERYWHERE EVEN IN THE MORE AFFLUENT AREAS. I WORKED FOR A VERY PRESTIGIOUS FIRM THAT DEALT WITH MILLIONAIRE AND BILLIONAIRE CLIENTS AND BELIEVE ME WHEN I SAY EVEN THE UBER RICH EXPERIENCE VIOLENT CRIMES; BUT AREAS SUCH AS THE ONE I CURRENTLY LIVE IN, TEND TO HAVE A HIGHER RATE OF VIOLENT CRIMES. THESE AREAS ARE CONCENTRATED WITH DRUGS, AND A MENTALITY THAT BREEDS DEATH AND DESTRUCTION.

I WENT TO THE ER A FEW NIGHTS AGO, METHODIST HOSPITAL, IT WAS CRAZY IN THERE, A FIGHT ALMOST BROKE OUT AND POLICE DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. I HAD BEEN THERE FOR TWO HOURS AND NOT ONE PERSON HAD BEEN CALLED INTO A ROOM. I ENDED UP LEAVING; HOWEVER, AS I WAS WALKING BACK TO MY CAR, A TOW TRUCK WAS TOWING A CAR AWAY, THE CAR HAD BLOOD ON THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE DOOR AND DALLAS POLICE WAS STANDING RIGHT THERE, AMBULANCE AFTER AMBULANCE WAS ARRIVING TO THAT HOSPITAL, CRIME IS HORRIFIC IN DALLAS. ALL I CAN SAY IS BEWARE, BEWARE, BEWARE. IT'S TRUE WHAT THEY SAY ABOUT DOWNTOWN DALLAS AFTER DARK, IT BECOMES A VERY DANGEROUS PLACE TO BE.

North, Northwest, and Northeast Dallas

Once upon a time back in the 1980's North, Northwest, and Northeast Dallas were all great, safe, places to live and work. Even before the 1980's the zoning policies of Dallas city and Dallas county had begun to take their toll. Mass building of low-quality, low-priced apartments soon overwhelmed the tranquil neighborhoods. Today, most of Dallas has become a crime invested ghetto. The schools suck. Major corporations have all moved their offices north to Collin and Denton Counties. You can obtain drugs, prostitutes, and be a crime victim anywhere in Dallas.

Other Local Ghettos

The Northwest Highway Haunted House: This dung infested pavement stretches east to west across I-75. At both the eastern and western ends you will find that the city erected more ghetto dwellings. Same problems with My Ghetto. Additional problems...Harry Hines Boulevard - roving bands of prostitutes can be seen traversing the many seedy streets branching of HHB - the police don't do anything about it - it was like that in the 1970's when I was in high school.

The I30 Gin Mill

If you are brave or lost you may find yourself on Interstate Highway I30. It travels east to west through the heart of downtown Dallas and on to Arlington and Fort Worthless. The problems begin in the Mesquite, Texas ghetto coming from the east. From Mesquite to Arlington is a wasteland of marginal housing, street beggars, donks, roaming homeless people, and scenes befitting a low-budget horror movie. The whole place sucks. Stop for gas and a player will ask you for money. The greatest attraction is the span of I30 by Fair Park where the Cotton Bowl and State Fair are held each year. This is a stretch of liquor stores, delapidated housing, prostitutes, drug dealers, and wandering zombies. The real estate values in East Dallas are only marginally better than the values in Hell (West Dallas). You can get mugged or have your vehicle stolen here in broad day light.

All City Planners use drugs and are insane

Dallas County has several neighboring counties: Denton to the Northeast, Collin to the North, Tarrant to the West. Tarrant County is pretty much as bad as Dallas County but Collin and Denton Counties are on the path to civilization. Collin County keeps ghetto-people out by keeping taxes higher and paying public school teachers more money than in Dallas County. Collin County must be offering nice tax incentives to corporations because there are tons of them there. What does Dallas offer? Bad zoning policies that group $300,000 homes, HUD apartments, schools, liquor stores, and decaying neighborhoods together. As people with money consistently choose Collin County as a place to live Dallas will become a magnet for the noneconomically viable thus attracting more bums, criminals, illicit drugs, violent crimes, property value decrements, insurance increases, and a cultural shift toward liberalism. How can elected officials undermine the rights of property owners by allowing ghettos to form? If other local governments throughout our planet can engineer high quality civilization then what is wrong the idiots managing Dallas County and most of the cities in Dallas County?

The DART Rail\Bus System: Mobility for Hookers, Thugs, and Bums

Prostitutes from the east, south, and west portions of Dallas will board the rail\bus system and pander themselves in areas close to a rail hub or bus stop. Hookers will travel in pairs for safety and use their cell phone cameras to capture photos of potential Johns and relay their status back to their pimp dispatch department. The use of technology by the modern whore has actually enabled them to penetrate further into civlized portions of the city than they have in the past. The negative aspect of hooking in Dallas is that it is easy to spot them and therefore easy to target them for expulsion.

Thugs will use the DART system as a means to hunt robbery or auto-theft targets. They can appear in a good part of town and melt into the shadows of alleys, apartments, and residential streets quickly. Smash and grab tactics are usually employed against crimes of opportunity. Punks like this are difficult to spot as they appear much like the people who belong in whatever neighborhood they are invading.

Bums use the DART system to relocate after they are discovered bumming in one area of the city. If they committed a crime, were ejected by property owners, or harrassed enough by the cops in one area then they will alter their venue to allow things to cool down. The best way to keep them out is to never give them any money or assistance while they are in your neighborhood.

A Few Good Things About Dallas

The conservatives here in Dallas don't like big government tax bills so the number of police in Dallas County is horribly low given the number of knuckle-dragging street apes roaming around. The cops are pretty much at 100% utilization of their time and other resources so they generally only concentrate on making busts that increase violent crime statistics. They can qualify for Fedearl and State aid if they can demonstrate a higher prevalence for certain types of crimes. This means that the cops don't have any time, resources, or motivation to interfere with vigilante activity.

Dallas is probably one of the best cities in the US for hunting thugs, gangsters, whores, gang members, punks, and lower-order genetic-filth people. It's as if the local area government wants private citizens to engage in activities that make Dallas an inhospitable environment for criminals. Low-life ghetto residents and unprofessional criminals are highly reluctant to call the cops if they or their property gets wacked. If you are on probation or parole, have felonies on your record, or have warrants out for your arrest, how motivated would you be to talk to a cop?

Destroying some players hooptie often enough that he can't afford repairs is a great motivator for convincing him to relocate.

Trolling the ghetto parts of town on a Friday or Saturdat night is usually a great way to find some idiots openly smoking dope in their car at a stop light, then tailing them while you report it to police dispatch. You could even drop off a box of screws in the street to make sure the undesirables get flat tires.

You can stakeout some of the Men's Club strip bars on Northwest highway to select that one special dumbass who gets behind the wheel of his car when obviously inhebriated. Again, tail him and call 911.

Several ghetto apartment complexes have been driven out of business due to the property damage inflicted by homeowners living in the shadow of the hood.

A plus for the vigilante is that whores won't call the cops to report anything while they are on the job (especially if they have prior arrests for prositution).

You could easily pull a Paul Kersey (Charles Bronson) in this city by making yourself a target for robbers then suprising them by pulling out a couple of pistols and perforating them thoroughly.

Pepper spray or a can of Wasp and Hornet Killer are always good items to carry if you have to be near a DART station , a shopping mall, or go downtown.

Headshops, pool halls, and liquor stores can be eradicated from your neighborhood if the insurance rates on the propety occupied go sky high. The landlord will soon learn that it is unprofitable to lease to certain types of businesses.

If you observe a ghetto-animal it doesn't take too much effort to follow it and find where its nest is located.

If you like biking\cycling please remember that a chain with a padlock at the end of it makes a great tool for self-defense.

If you are a firearm enthusiast note that you can load a revolver pistol cartride with BBs or shotgun pellets and blast anything you want without leaving a balistic signature. You can even purchase pistols that accept a 410 shotgun shell.

Don't feed the animals. Anytime some bum approaches you to beg for money you should beat him to the punch and ask him if he has a couple of dollars he can spare for you before he utters one syllable. He will not only walk away, he will never approach you again.

When driving in Dallas it is advisable to carry a stun gun, mace, pepper spray, or Wasp and Hornet killer, a fixed blade knife, a folding knife, two pair of hand cuffs, a camera, a sound recording device, pistol(s), a pellet\BB gun, some rope, a mask, and a phone. Never leave any of these things visible from outside your vehicle.

When in your home you should have a loaded pistol within arms reach of you at all times. It is also a good idea to sleep with a hatchet, machete, giant survival knife, hammer, chain, baseball bat, or other such close defense tool tucket between your mattress or under your pillow. In addition to a couple of pistols you should have a shotgun, carbine, or assault rifle loaded but hidden from easy site somewhere in your house just in case of riots, home invasion robberies, or natural disaster (think Hurricane Katrina and the mess in New Ghetto Orleans, LA).

Cleaning Up All Major Cities in the USA

If you are from civilization and have never seen a demilitarized zone like Dallas then you should wonder how a city allows itself to deteriorate into a nightmare of decadence and decay.

The only way to fix the system is to drive out the elements that are causing all the problems.

Crack houses are flamable.

Jacking up property values and property taxes will force street apes to relocate.

When criminals become the victims of crime they won't hang around for very long.

You can get a cash award from the state if you turn in a drug dealer.

Never operate a business in or near a ghetto.

I have lived in Dallas for over 40 years. Here is what I suggest for visitors. When in doubt, as a rule of thumb, try ur best not to venture out to any areas west, south, or southeast of Downtown Dallas, ( the area between Interstate 35 E, Interstate 30/ Highway 67, and Interstate 20) unless u have a specific reason to or are going with a group. I suggest completely avoiding these areas after dark. Take caution in Downtown after dark, especially on weekends. I also recommend avoiding if possible riding buses and trains after around 9-10 pm and before 6am. If u stay north, northwest, or northeast of downtown or in any of Dallas's suburbs, u'll be well off and should then just take the usual precautions. Its a shame that this is so segregated. Otherwise the city is safe for the most part. Just use common sense.

Not well known, but there is a herd of vampiric pegasi marauding around Oak Cliff. Do not get caught outside after dark, otherwise these blood-drinking, flying horses will swoop down and exsanguinate you on the spot.

I am a home owner in N. oak cliff. A huge advocate for the area and the businesses. I was violently attacked at the texas theater May 2012 in the theater. Was a supporter and frequently visited.. on this occasion watching the Avengers was pulled out of my seat to my knees and given an indian burn on my arms by a fellow patron who said I was talking.This was done with no warning. I am a 110lb woman with the attacker being a large male. No one mentioned they were disturbed and I am very conscientious of my actions and certainly didn't mean to be disruptive in any way if in fact I was disturbing someone. No on said anything before I was attacked. Reporting to the management I was told this was my problem and not their concern. I will certainly NEVER go back again and feel obligated to tell everyone of the potential danger of this place. I am a highly esteemed and good citizen of Dallas. I warn you to be extremely careful in venturing into this establishment as your safety is apparently, disrespected, disregarded, and it caters to a lower element of society.

The best thing is don`t make eye contact with anyone in public, don`t go out after dark, don`t answer your door, lock your car when driving, have pistol and two clips at the ready but the biggest dangers are the people running red lights so look both ways before crossing. Best off in between the tollway, 635 and central to downtown. Park cities if you`re lucky but don`t cross central at night.

There are a lot of very bad areas in Dallas, but any major city has a few so most people know what to look for, observe your surroundings and think rationally, if it looks bad then dont go walking around. Im a white male living in a north suburb of Dallas, I've been everywhere in Dallas, my drug addiction to coce led me to bad areas, i then got on heroin and that led me to even worse areas, places you dont ever want to see. Nothing ever happened to me but thats probably cause it looked like i was jonesing when i was in these areas. My relative was murdered in a suburb of Dallas thats not in a bad area, thugs decided to go there to rob, so you see the moral to this?? It happens anywhere!!!

Some ppl are rite bout dallas but some r wrong the best spot is also the worst spots oak cliff is one place u dnt want to mess with cuz dats my hood n we gets to da real west dallas it goes dwn to south dallas u better cum wit it east dallas to.north dallas is the best spot thats were most of the ppl wit money lives like george washington but north is bad to because thuggs go there to snatch purses,make u drop out(drop everything u got money phones n clothes),rod ur house ect.....becuase we kno u got wat we need everywhere in dallas is safe if u thuggin.

So I gather by reading the places to avoid in Dallas, TX I should stay in my car & don't stop, don't get out, drive as fast as I can thorugh Dallas. If you believed all this crap no one would ever leave their house or apartment. There are so many beautiful areas of Dallas & I think most are peaceful and quaint. The cops need to be more concerned about the safety of the citizens than about the next Police Women of Dallas episode. Prevention is the answer and I am one citizen of Dallas who practices what I preach.

If I could give anyone moving to Dallas a tip, just don't live in an apartment. This is an extremely dangerous city and apartments are the most dangerous part, especially at night. Also don't joke yourself into thinking your in a good area, apartments are like little islands of hell and as soon as you step onto that property, the demographics drastically change. If you wan't the urban experience, move to New York, Dallas is just not the city for that, you will be around lots of crime and thug lowlifes, trust me on this move to the suburbs.
