I've seen very little to back up the opinions you'll read online about it being a slum hotbed of crime. It's really a very decent place to live, great location, and definitely on the way up.
In terms of crime I've personally witnessed 2 instances in the 15 years I'm here, both of theft. I can't comment on anywhere else during this time but I would say that's probably average v's other people's experiences in towns/cities across the country based on population etc.
