Don't say that. According to clowns on here the City is as safe as it ever has been. A spate of attempted car thefts in Carrigaline. 20 drug deaths in 1 week alone. Coolmine rehab is running out of spots as so many people in Cork need treatment for drug and alcohol issues. Scumbags on here have their heads firmly in the sand.
I wouldn't be that alarmist about the city overall to be honest, I still think it's a relatively safe place. Just the drug dealing in that area is so obvious it's like something from the Pit in the Wire
