The cannon on Dwight-it’s an Arsenal bar with great food and drinks, they’re showing all games today

I'm non-yale affiliated so perhaps the experience is different for yalies. There just seems to be slim pickings for queer young professionals.

I live near Chapel on Dwight St, and IMO the area is plenty safe. Never had an issue.

I used to live at 80 Howe. This area is completely safe.

That area is fine these days. Yeah, you'll see more black people than East Rock or Wooster Square, but you'll be fine. How bad can a spot be that's a few blocks from an Apple Store?

You will be absolutely fine. There is plenty of foot traffic in that area at all times of day and night. You are just about across the street from the Yale Security offices. There are plenty of good restaurants within a block or two and the rest of downtown and Yale is just beyond that. Stop & Shop is only a short walk, though I might only do that in the daytime as the Elm St side can get a little squirrely at night.

Use common sense and take the same precautions you would in any city and you'll be fine.

In general though, New Haven is a great little city that punches way above it's weight in terms of culture, restaurants, bars, clubs, arts, music, etc.

Edit: I live a couple of blocks away from there and have never had any problems.

I used to live around there. No issues other than people going into my car if i was stupid enough to leave it unlocked.

I haven’t lived there, but I was around the corner on Chapel and Howe.

My girlfriend walked from Yale drama buildings to my place without issue, often late at night. I rarely left at night but generally felt safe in that area.

Yes indeed. GF got it and luckily I didn’t… we’re quarantining in different rooms in our apartment. Pain in the ass.

Quarantine? COVID still a thing?

They do leave a trail of broken windows and eardrums. I love me some loud music but that is truly insane. And they almost certainly violate one or more NH ordinances?! 🥴

Unless you get the occasional person who parks their car blasting music all night. Then it never passes.

Most of them are bots anyway

It's only for 30 secs until the pass lol

Precisely lol.

Yea those intense, unnaturally loud, penetrating sub-bass thumps just drive me nuts. No hiding from it.

sounds like shit and makes you a jackass

Just preempting the usual responses usually seen here after these types of posts ha.

Hot takes only, plz lmao

You must be an intolerant bigot for not loving it 😮

Damn

What makes it rough? I'm an intl student, Bi male, considering Yale as one of my options.
