Whether the term inner city means geographical location or it's a term to describe a low income, densely populated area makes no difference in Calgary's case is both situations apply. While Calgary's inner city may bot be as bad as some of the American inner city areas, it's still the ghetto of the city, in particular the Beltline. The visions you see of American inner cities where neighborhoods with squalid apartments exist, and prostitutes and junkies roam and streets and crimes are routinely committed, hold true for downtown and the Beltline. Mention homeless people, prostitutes, needles, crime, public urination and vomiting and the first place people think of is downtown and the Beltline. Yeah those things exist in smatterings throughout the city, but mostly in the core.
