its not that there is a universal risk of getting shot, its not the old west.. its that on blocks across the eastside and south central there is a lot of heavily concentrated gang violence. The key word here is gang, if your not involved, there is not much risk to you. Most people honestly don't notice or are oblivious to this violence because it doesn't necessarily hit them.
in South Central, in 96th street people get shot weekly, it can actually be a bit nerve wracking sometimes like Baghdad for folks. But on 99th it looks like Inglewood Cosby show.. it is literally a trip. In Artesia on the south eastside, on Olive Street it is quiet folks, families, poor but relatively nice, two streets over on Apricot Street people get shot twice a month at least, similar to South Central...
another example, whittier is a relatively middle class, mom and pop side of town. nice houses, some money.. and yet my friends little brother got shot in the back of the head execution style in whittier..
shit happens.
if your not affiliated or involved, there is not much for you to worry about.
