Should it be safe for three fifteen year olds to go shopping in Seattles Capitol Hill, alone?


Travel Info
Is Capitol Hill generally safe? My daughter (fourteen) wants to go shopping with her two friends, one male(fifteen) and one female(fifteen) in Capitol Hill, Seattle, Washington. I am not sure if it is safe or not... and need second.. third.. fourth.. opinions.

Travel Tips
I would assume she is going to be shopping on Broadway since it is the only real shopping area up here. I think it is perfectly safe in the daytime, but to warn you, there are some aggressive panhandlers looking for drug money. As long as she has some street smarts and she won't be easily intimidated or scared by drunks/people on drugs asking her for money, then let her go. I think it's a good idea that she will be with a boy and another girl. Source(s): I'm a 25 y/o female living on Cap Hill

Other Travel Tips
Yes, Seattle's a pretty safe city and that includes Capitol Hill. I assume you're talking about daytime since it's shopping. You don't really have anything more to worry about than you would if you were sending her to the mall.
15 - I'd say with friends in the day she will have no problem.
As a mother, and a previous teenage Seattle resident, I would say in a small group she should be okay. That is an area known for it's flamboyance and oddities - college crowd along with cross dressers, ravers, panhandlers, homeless kids, etc. All of that makes it a fun and interesting place to be. Just do the usual safety stranger talk, etc. and trust your instincts on how responsible your daughter is. I wouldn't have her go alone.
sure- no problem. If she gets lost- ask a local queen. They are very helpful and love to help out tourists. Also, make sure they eat at dicks drive in burger joint- best in the world. If htey see a large queen with purple flowery hair and silver shoes ask her for help- he is my roommate and is very nice! have alot of fun- enjoy our city and Welcome!!!!
live on broadway- work on broadway- love broadway!!!
