Although I live in a town in semi-rural extreme southern Illinois, it has a university beside it. The university is three blocks away from my neighborhood, which is on a block adjoining, and there are rows of cheap apartment buildings all over. Several times, I have seen a hopped-up Dodge or Chrysler park and idle on the street, then somebody comes out, apparently gets into the car as if they are getting picked up, but then a couple of minutes later, re-emerges from the car and skips quickly back to where they came from. Well, duh.
Also, a few times I heard what sounds like firecrackers at about 1:00 a.m. or so. Except when I told a guy friend who knows the neighborhood where I live, he said "That ain't firecrackers." The main police station is about 1/4 mile away, which helps, but within the next couple of years, I hope to move someplace safer.
