Quote:Riding a motorcycle on Atlantic Blvd can get a little dicey.

Riding a motorcycle ANYWHERE in Jacksonville can get a little dicey if you're not a competent rider. 

 

As far as the question by the OP, Moncrief is child's play.  Go on down Phoenix Avenue, or near Cleveland Arms Apartments, especially after dark, and see just how sketchy things can get. 

 

There are good and bad areas all over town.  Friends of ours lives in a neighborhood adjacent to the Hidden Hills Country Club.  Someone was shot and killed in his truck a few doors down from them earlier this week, and that's a fairly decent neighborhood.  The news crews were set up in their front yard doing their reports.
