Mom's Opinion?:  I have only been at the very top of the East Village so far.... right above Gramercy near Suyvescent on First Street.  It was diverse area with many, many different American and Foreign people.  You see that all over NYC, but more so here.  Here I see diverse social groups too ranging from punkers to bohemian.  Lots more grafitti on the buildings here.  I felt safe, but it is more bustling and fast paced.  I plan on visiting the East Village later on this summer.  The East Village is known to attract the young and trendy, cutting-edge crowd. 

Is the East Village Safe?
Safety Verdict as of 2008:  Yes it is safe during the day, others say they feel safe in the evenings too (common sense applied).  The overall consensus is to stay away from Tompkins Park at night.  Still others have warned about Allen Street and Chrystie street below Houston Street being a bit sketchy. 

Please remember that crime can happen anywhere.  2008 Article - Karaoke bouncer shot during melee
