Yeah, UC is considerably worse than UK or UofL with regard to crime. There is the occasional shooting at UK, but it is rare because Lexington's worst usually get beat with nightsticks when they appear on UK's campus, whereas Cincinnati has some spots that wouldn't be out of place for Detroit (still not nearly as bad as the worst parts of Motown, but not places I would stop for gas either). UK football players are pretty infamous locally for being involved in nearly every major crime on campus, including a shooting that campus police covered up the UK player's involvement.
