Most dangerous parts of st. thomas?

Question

waht in your opinion is the most unsafe place to be in st. thomas?

i go there every year and im just wonderin to stay safe

Answer 1

I concur with the two previous posters. The risk for being in ST. Thomas is no greater than any other place. Actually, I still believe it is less. Particularly, since any crime on the island is targetted towards other islanders.

Answer 2

In my opinion being out very late, in a dark area with no one around, traveling by yourself is unsafe in any location.

Looking to buy drugs or if your drunk, you are in danger.

If you follow the same precautions you take at home, you will be very safe. Don't flash money, wear expensive jewelry, or hang in dark deserted areas, you will have a great vacation.

Enjoy St Thomas)

Answer 3

I agree with the other posts here, use common sense and you be fine, that being said, Back St. in the downtown area looks really rough late at night,  I drove thru that area last September, and it was real scary, lots of hooker types

Answer 4

You'd be as safe here as you would in any tourist destination PROVIDED you obey the same rules you do if you travel anywhere else:

1. Travel with a party.

2. Stay in well lighted areas

3. Avoid dark alleys.

4. Don't hitchhike or accept rides for unlicensed taxis.

5. Don't flash expensive accessories.

As a general precaution though, I would recommend not wandering around anywhere that isn't on your main path.
