&gt; I don&#x27;t believe there was or is anything &quot;unsafe&quot; about public property. We did have a very small backyard that was shared with 6 families<p>I wouldn&#x27;t call it public, it&#x27;s more of a shared space an apartment complex might have.<p>The larger the city, the higher is the likelihood of public spaces having a variety of homeless encampments, broken glass, needles and plain old feces.
