I had a conversation with a friend last night about where it is safe to park as a woman traveling solo to an event. Free parking on the street but having to walk a few blocks or pay for parking and have more people around. You are so right it is an everyday, every time I leave home thought process. It adds to the rest of the stress we deal with every day.
Agree with you here over in Brooklyn. While I feel that my neighbors are making an effort to be polite and gracious with strangers. There are some beautiful efforts to help immigrants with the new crazy climate. On the other side there are now a regular occurrences of car windows being smashed. Nobody leaves anything in the cars, so it's just vandalism. There are also a LOT more mentally challenged people out and about and the subway does not feel safe. We feel the difference when we've been to Spain.

The concern is nonexistent here.
I hope you're doing well. It was great meeting you and your husband here in Valencia!
