No its not my oxfam office was in the art district 8 blocks from skid row and on my way home to NH at night i hada change to the red line at westlake/mcarthur park so first hand experience i call BS
Skid Row is like Day of the Dead. Sad and scary though surprisingly a lot better than it was a couple of years ago. MacArthur Park has more life. People making an honest living among the drug addicts, down and outs, mentally ill, fake ID pandering, etc. though I love the #19 at Langers Deli! One of the best sandwiches in the world!
It's not so fun at night. Especially when all the crack monsters come out. I know a couple of dtgs and La was my home for quite a while so I know all about the City of Angels I come from Compton
