In 2022, what are the best and worst neighborhoods to live in Portland Maine? Crime is my primary concern. What cities around Portland would be nice to live in?

Crime is relative. Park Side, and East and West Bay Side will have higher crime rates than the rest of the neighborhoods on the peninsula. However, there isn't a lot of crime in Portland overall when compared to other cities.

If there is a neighborhood in Portland where it is unsafe to walk around during the day, I have never found it.

Agreed that there really are no neighborhoods in Portland that need to be avoided due to crime. Some of my favorite neighborhoods would be off-peninsula, like Deering Highlands, North Deering, and Stroudwater.
