After bayou things are pretty tame and quiet in my time living in New Orleans because it gets frigid at night with the wind whipping about

I'd say you're clear to proceed safely and have a really good time

Should be safe next weekend with temps in the 30s at night

Cold weather keeps the riff raff down

As safe as it always is. Don't walk around by yourself and don't go past the third block after midnight and don't go on the side streets and most importantly don't run your mouth or confront or bitch at a thug for any reason.

With all of the BS the country goes through and with the talk of violence with the NBA all star game and the Saints winning the super bowl, there hasn't been any big problems in the quarter.

Just use common sense and I would suggest by 2:00AM calling it a night. If you end up in a block up by canal with a bunch of thug homies hanging around and they look like they are up to no good, get away ASAP.

You'll be fine. Quarter gets shady after midnight. Bourbon after 10pm.

you should be fine with the colder weather coming down....just be very aware of where you are, as things vary a hell of a lot from one block to the next in the quarter.

Do you all really get scared any where between Rampart and the river? I never have been.
I admit that I can count on one hand the times I've been in the quarter past midnight in the past five years, but it's not like thugs are living in the quarter.

Oh really? What part of the FQ exactly do you avoid?
