but when you have larger centralized populations you will naturally have more good and "bad" things. Reading the weekly crime rates does not add to the good security feelings when Wildwood cases are mentioned.

the so called "concern" about Wildwood is nothing more than an urban legend type product usuualy dispensed by folks who are elitist types who parrot third, fourth, twelfth hand stories about the area.
If most of the hometowns that many who live here are from were close to one of our "safe" town centers, they would belooked down upon as well.......they just are not of the bubble.
95% of the residents of Wildwood are...get ready...NO DIFFERENT THAN US!!!!!!!!
How very unfair to residents and their families who have been here for years to be rated by outsidders (that would be us from the bubble!!). Remember we are the intruders not the citizens of Wildwood.
Ridiculous snobbery! Unfounded concern!! But to each his own opinion even if it is wrong.
