The edge and the center gated communites and discourse of urban fear


Thesis: crime levels in urban communities have forced people to move in to communities with walls
Summary:
Seth M. low informs us about isolated communities that fear the world outside their walls. These small communities have their own government and laws. Majority of these people living in these communities have moved from cities, because of their experience with crime; however, I believe that people who isolate themselves from others can affect themselves even more. Seth found it very hard to interview these people due to the fact that not anyone is allowed into these isolated communities. However, when she got access to peoples that live in these communities they all shared the same answer.

I belief isolated communities can cause the city money and prevent news to these communities.
