For my safety report to hold any weight I first feel I should say that I’m from Houston, Texas, and in Texas really anywhere in Texas. You would never find me walking anywhere at night by myself and even with companions we’d still be mindful of going anywhere late. However, Kurume and this is true for many parts of Japan. I don’t have those worries. I could go anywhere anytime of day or night and not think I’ll be harmed.
