that's my neighborhood, right by the county jail. when my roomate and i moved here, the first thing we saw in our apartment parkign lot was a busted out window on a car that got cleaned out and an MS13 tag on the building. i hear gunfire all the time, no one ever calls the cops.
ive been at the maverick's (gas station) on my block within 10 min of a robbery like 5 times, it happened again this past saturday night.
i used to live next door to some bangers who had rowdy ass parties when one of their homies got out of prison. they were cool to me, but i felt really out of place at their parties because i've never been to prison.
there are also rowdy samoan gangs too that fight with the mexicans.
west valley/s.salt lake isnt like cabrini green or other bad parts of bigger cities ive been to, but to assume slc not affected by crime because it's all mormons is totally wrong.
