Is Atlantic city beach safe and which part is the safest?
My family and I are planning on going to Atlantic City Beaches for this summer and we want to know if it is safe to spend time there. If so, which part of the Atlantic City Beach is safe. One of my co-worker told me that only certain part of the Atlantic Beach is safe and others are run down part of black communities that you may get robbed or hurt like the Ocean city beaches. Is that true?
If you want to be safe, stay in one of the Casinos on the board walk, weekdays they are not expensive.Trump taj mahal, bally’s, showboat, Ceasars etc are just some that you can stay in.
Check the websites for prices. The beaches are safe and if you stay on the boardwalk in front of the hotels during the day and stay in the hotels at night where there are tons of things to do in the casinos besides gambling. If you want to travel from one casino to the other there is a small bus called a Jitney which takes you from one casino to another for a small price.
During the day besides the beach there is a very nice outlet mall across from Ceasars hotel , within walking distance which is fine during the day with great stores
We go there every summer and as long as you are cautious and stay in or around the casinos you should be fine.

Generally, the further east/north you go, the more dangerous it becomes. I think the area around the Convention Center and bus station is fairly safe.
I hope this information was very helpful.

I believe Ajedrez meant to say west, not east. West are the more problematic areas. East is the ocean. I’m sure it’s dangerous if you venture too far in that direction, but that’s another story altogether.

The beach itself is a safe area provided you stay within limits designated by the lifeguards. The areas near the casinos are ok but you would not want to wander to far away from them.
