It's not too bad. This portion of Auburn Blvd runs adjacent to the business 80 loop, and there are a number of hourly rate hotels along that strip. It's not uncommon to see women "waiting for a ride." The surrounding area is mostly low income housing. The upside is that there are a number of safe night spots just a few minutes away. That said, you probably won't be shot walking to your car. :-) Please note, however, that I was carjacked (at gunpoint) about one mile from here. I'm really not trying to scare anyone away. Treat it like any other unfamiliar city. Use a bit of common sense, keep your wits about you, and don't walk to your car alone.
