yes, chicago's notorious violent crime is very concentrated in the far west side and far south side ghettos, places that extremely few visitors ever venture to, unless they have friends/family in those areas. your average tourist to chicago is extremely unlikely to spend any time wandering the streets of garfield park or englewood.
as can be seen on the map below showing homicides so far this year, ~75% of chicago's homicides are concentrated in just 15 community areas on the far west and far south sides. by comparison, chicago's other 62 community areas aren't exactly mayberry, but they're a FAR cry from places like englewood or garfield park and the like when it comes to violent street crime.
