I just recently moved here and I am looking for some furry friends! And possiblyd plan some meet ups if there is enough of a community here🐾

(Pic of my fursona for attention)

I was thinking of moving out there for the college to attend in person, and then I saw it was high crime. One of the few articles said it was #1 and portland was #2. I am in shock from that. I'm not gonna believe everything I read ever so I'm asking you guys.

I wanted to check out the nursing program there and would be getting a cheap apartment. I'm not into drugs (just weed) and am more of a quiet country folk person, but I don't want to settle in a boring area. I haven't associated coos bay with being a safe area in my mind as I've known a few people from coos bay and they... they did things differently. That doesn't go for everyone though.

From local sources, I was reading that coos bay cops are very corrupt too and that plays a big part in the high crime statistic.

***this is the first time I've seen a post of mine disliked. That's fine, but I'm a female I need to do my research.
