It's not as bad as Cleveland, St. Louis and other areas overrun by Obama's sons. But it has it's own flavor with many tattooed types from south of the border or released from the local hoosegow flashing gang signs and looking for folks that may have dissed them (real or imagined) so they can retaliate.
Law enforcement in ABQ has a two pronged problem - they are under staffed by a couple of hundred and now the DOJ and locals have them on a tight rope because of well-publicized incidents of police shootings.
My neighborhood is nice enough. No really serious crime (Vandalism, occasional car break ins). I had a neighbor he was nice enough We helped each other out a couple times (helped fix each others garage doors for one thing) But I knew something was up as he always had money and yet didn’t seem to work. He was good dad to his two little girls, but one day I came home to take the Mrs to the doctor and it looked like they were filming COPS nextdoor to my house. They had him in the back of a patrol car SWAT, Feds, patrolmen all over. He came home about a week or so later had an ankle tracker, but continue to be a fair neighbor and helped with watching for vagrants in the empty houses. Yet a couple months later I came home from work to find the scene from COPS repeated they had him up against a car when I pulled up. His wife moved out a few months later and the house has been empty since must be at least 3 years now. I guess it was a case of him not taking a dump where he lived.
