Oakland was a pit 40 years ago and hasn't improved since.
The corrupt leadership abets the crime on the street.

I lived in the East Bay about forty years ago and for one season I had season tickets to the Oakland Symphony.
Concert-goers were terrified leaving the site at night. We walked in packs to the parking lots, everyone looking in all directions for potential attackers.
We were all idiots for going there—it was pathetic.

Oakland was a pit 40 years ago and hasn't improved since. Yes, the flats have always sucked. Even the hills aren't particularly safe anymore.
