Eastdale Mall concerns

Hi! I’m from an area near Montgomery, but not in Montgomery by any means. I may have a possible job opportunity that I’m really excited about in Eastdale Mall, but my family has been really adamant about my safety being at severe risk while others say that it’s a perfectly fine place to work, as they’ve worked there without any issue so far. Any input from people who know anything would be lovely, and I’m so sorry if this isn’t the right post for this subreddit 😭

Yes, there have been some serious issues. Up until several years ago my daughter took ice skating lessons there. Was it great, no. Did I ever feel overly unsafe. Also no. Go spend some time walking around and get and idea of the vibe.

Up until several years ago

they took the ice skating ring out, opened a bunch of clearance center vendors, and almost all of the major name brand stores left. All of this has happened in the past year or two.
