How to use "Run-down" in context?
Contrary to popular belief, a run-down neighbourhood does not necessarily denote a dangerous or dangerous place to live. Quite often, areas that are rundown are poorly maintained and have little to no investment. This can directly lead to a lack of services and infrastructure, such as safety and cleanliness, which can put residents at risk. Additionally, run-down neighbourhoods often have a high concentration of poverty and social marginalized groups, which can lead to increased crime rates and other problems.
