Bad guys are not actually that bad, it turns out. They mostly prey on one another. The idea that the Bad Sections Of Town are a death trap is almost always wrong.
That's not it.
People don't want to be exposed or made a target of other unknown person's view.
You might not be 'preyed upon' but someone might certainly take umbrage at being a target. I've had people warn me off in no uncertain terms.
Last year, after reading 'The Corner', I drove into Baltimore at 5:30 on a Sunday morning to get a few shots of the neighborhood, without people.
It was scary then, and there were people on the corner looking at me.
A police car stopped, asked me what I was doing and then told me to get the hell out before they had to answer a call that someone had punched me - or worse.
