'avoid making eye contact with down and outs'

'always look like you know where your going, even if you dont'

avoid south brooklyn (LMAO) and china town after dark

always walk in well lit areas

'dont get drawn into conversations with other people'


Comments on coney include
'what was once considered the ultimate playground is now a wasteland of drug dealers and the desperate, although a trip to the aqarium is a must'

A lot of those comments sound dated to me.  Check the copyright year on the book.
