To respond to rachel’s comment — “How many girls in their twenties are afraid of walking alone in the well-lit areas of suburban Des Moines?” — as resident of Des Moines for eight years I can say that city, like the rest of country, is dealing with the same problems. When I volunteered for a Des Moines youth shelter five years ago, the director told me that Des Moines has the largest population of homeless youth in the country.
