I moved to St Albans for almost 3 years. The first impression that I had, it was public tranportation. There were three bus lines around my house. I only just walked for 5 mins to get there or I could walk to train station within 20 mins at noon and not rush. I found that it was very easy and convienient to travel between city and St Albans. I usually travelled at noon and sometime at night by train. However, I thought the St Albans station at night looked fine with spot lights and security guard from metro. I never had problem travelling at night, it might be because I live on the main street? Also, I found that there were a lots of good commercial buildings around St Albans such as shops, markets, fitnesses, and etc. People were nice and friendly. I never got any discriminations either physical and mental.

I have read some websites that said St Albans is not safe. Personally, I heard some negative news about it but it always happens where isolated and quited. Thus, I think it is not about where you live but it is what you do. I used to live where is closed to main street and a lot neighours and near public buildings such as childcare or school. I often hear and see policemen drive around here at noon and night. This makes me feel much more better. However, there are some motorcycles racing on the street but it was a year ago and now I never hear that again.

Finally, I would rate St Albans as convienienct, accessible, affordable, and peaceful. On the others hand, I perhaps concern about its safety because I heard the noise from venicle racing several times. If there is a police station in this suburb I would get St Albans off from the black list in term of safety. Over all, I satisfy to live here and looking forward in next several years for possitive changes.
