Yes. It's low income subsidized housing.

"According to a tenant who has lived there for 18 years and asked not to be named for fear of retribution, security has long been an issue.

“[The former owners] were not doing their job correctly,” said the tenant, adding that public safety measures have been lax since Newport police officer Anthony Piermont was stabbed in 2010 while trying to detain a 16-year-old resident."

Are we at the point where anytime something negative is said about an area in Rhode Island, a Florida resident is going to chime in with a story about having friends there and tell us it's not a bad area?

We're at the point where the Crime Fetish Twins are getting called out for needlessly trashing Rhode Island neighborhoods where their betters, know better.

You, of all people, should not have a problem with this.

If it's ok for out of state residents to weigh in how bad a neighborhood is, I guess it's also ok for them to say it's not.

I know. The irony was thick.

Rhode Island is such a small state that it is pretty hard to not have family or friends sprinkled throughout the state. It is also not unheard of either to have several generations of family that still reside in Rhode Island. That in fact leads to a somewhat less than six degrees of separation for many Rhode Islanders.

So why on Earth is low income subsidized housing highlighted for a random crime? Is this really news to you- to anybody?

I'll tell every one now- if you can possibly avoid it- don't live in low income subsidized housing.

Why do you insist on highlighting every single crime that happens in the state? RI is one of the lower states for crime in the country! Surely there is something wrong with you.
