The State Street location for MCC might well turn out to be more dangerous than downtown because, with ample parking, it will encourage car use, and car crashes are by far the leading cause of death and crippling injury to young people. Car crashes account for 33 percent of deaths in the 14-25 year old cohort, while homicide is responsible for only 15 percent of deaths. These are the facts.
As to the non-criminal rowdiness on the streets, that's something I think kids should learn to handle. (My kids did.) If you don't have street smarts, you are denying yourself access to some of the most interesting and amusing parts of the world.
