That's what she keeps telling me - that I shouldn't have to worry about her commuting on public transportation, sometimes late at night. Sheesh. I live outside of Atlanta, it's not like I fell off the turnip wagon. No matter how *safe* a place allegedly is, an idealistic, 5'4" 110 pound woman does not need to be travelling alone at night.
Sorry - I'll be a worrier when it comes to her naive, tree-hugging self the rest of my life!
She should live in my neighborhood, Dupont Circle. It's very busy.
There can be a tremendous amount of difference between "busy" and "safe." I know, I know...."don't worry" - Hah!
