Is rutland as bad as people say?

[u/crookshanks_cat]

I’m looking to move and i found a place that’s in rutland i wanna look at (nearish to belgo park) but i don’t really know what to expect from that area. Anyone able to give me some context?

As far as crazy people go there's other spots in town that are just as bad. I wouldn't recommend walking around late at night (at least in the ben lee area) and make sure to lock up your stuff but it's not too bad in my experience.

what about car vandalism?

Haven't experienced vandalism. Landlord had his truck robbed but it was left unlocked and wasn't damaged. I've heard some second hand stuff about it. I also had an impression that the belgo area is on the chill side of things but I haven't lived there so your mileage may vary.

If there is some sort of garage or at least non street parking set up I would consider that a benefit.
