Is New
Orleans safe? I’ve read a lot about how corrupt the police are, and there seems to be a lot of violence during Mardi
Gras.
Sadly, New Orleans is a poor
city and we have many urban problems. We don’t have enough rich
people to pay taxes that will go for public services. While we have many wonderful colleges and universities, our public schools are
dreadful. Carnival, the party that precedes Mardi Gras, can be
dangerous if you’re careless. Thieves abound, and the excess
drinking can lead to violence in some neighborhoods. But don’t
let that scare you off! New Orleans is fun all year round,
there’s always cold juleps, good food, great music, and gorgeous gals/guys.
