well mi live on the West End.....and like anywhere you use your common sense....
walking around drunk or high or both never a good idea no matter where you are.....
use the same cautions as you do in N America and you will be fine......

though mi seem to be more cautious than ever these days.....
maybe cause of the bad publicity or a few of the things that have happened in Negril.....
or maybe it my age now......dunno

there is a safety issue regarding walking and riding a bicycle on the West End Road.....
cause the road isn't wide nor are there any sidewalks on the West End Road....
I personally don't ride my bicycle at all after dark.....that is asking for it......
walking up and down lanes of course you are usually okay.....just watch out for the main roads

someday we will have sidewalks on the West End....
but probably not till there is bypass or sumthin else done
owners all have there fences and walls right up against the West End Rd so sumthin has to be done...
