So I am doing research on a trip I might be taking to New Orleans,...Ad one thing has come up ALOT...SAFETY?

Is NEw Orelans really as bad as people are saying? Is it any worse than any other city in the world? I have walked the streets of New York, Amsterdam, Sydney and Havana and have not really be concerned for my saftey (dispite some small incidents along the way) but everything that I am reading about NEw Orleans makes me kinda wonder.

Anyone have any comments or views or real hardcore first hand info on whats the deal in New Orleans

Thanks!
