We all love Nashville. Truly, madly, deeply. Too much? Well, it’s a sweet city and it’s our city and hearing that its a bit dangerous is kind of a sock in the jaw.

And we found out precisely what they learned.
Of the entire city, district 19, or the area we better know as downtown Nashville was deemed the most unsafe and rife with crime. There are obviously multiple factors that play into the situation, but your odds of being involved in one of the above crimes skyrocket once you make your way downtown.
It's strange to think, that this sweet downtown with its darling architecture and cowboy hat nod to our countrified past could be anything but lovely.

Did you know this is the most dangerous place in Nashville? It makes sense, but we never would have thought. Would you…?
