Areas to Avoid: Riverwalk Crime Late at night.
  • Tip Rating:
  • There were several muggings at the Riverwalk late at night. If you are down there after dark, do your best to stay in the more populated areas. I would recommend hanging out in a group if you are down there REAL late. The Riverwalk is fantastic it's too bad that they have the crime to deal with.

    Areas to Avoid: Along the edge of the Riverwalk
  • Tip Rating:
  • No brainer here, but be careful walking along the Riverwalk since there are no railings except where the restaurants are. Our tour guide mentioned the at least 500 people a year fall in and that it was mostly men....LMAO at that one...maybe because of an angry spouse or girlfriend?...HA! Who knows! The river for the most part is only 3 feets, but can be slippery trying to stand up! Just something to keep in mind, especially if your thinking of having a drinkpoo or two:-P

    Areas to Avoid: Don't Walk Alone
  • Tip Rating:
  • Like any other large city, San Antonio can be a bit unsafe at night alone! Stay in well-lit areas and try not to venture into any dark allies alone! Use common sense!

    Areas to Avoid: Rough parts of town
    As with any big city in Texas, there are some really rough and rundown parts of town. I haven't traveled all over SA, but one place that comes to mind is an area a couple of miles west of the Alamodome. I'll have to get some street/area names the next time I travel there. In any case, just be aware of your surroundings.
