Two views of downtown emerge at ASU
Since I praised current ASU students for their more positive views about downtown, it seems a battle of opinions has been waged on campus about downtown Phoenix. While more students seem to have come around to the view that downtown Phoenix isn't "scary," at least one person still is afraid in downtown, especially being hit up for change. (Is that guy serious?)

With more places (especially restaurants) staying open later in the downtown area, more people are feeling comfortable and willing to walk around late at night. Places like Hanny's, Sens, PastaBAR and many pubs and bars are keeping their doors open even at the weekdays until midnight or later. Around the ASU campus in particular, 24/7 security patrols the area and most students living downtown have peace of mind. There's always room for improvement, though, and adequate lighting in some areas is a problem.
