    Are you a Segway adventurer? In my humble opinion, Segway of Oakland is not a good choice. I've done Segway tours in other cities, never saw anything like this. The tour leader had some very bad habits. One was to move out fast way ahead of the group and then play around on his own and wait for us to catch up. When stopped at an intersection he would rock backward about a foot before starting forward, almost hit a woman who was standing behind him. She really had to move fast to get out of his way. The tour circuit had broken glass, railroad tracks, splintered wooden piers, and very busy city streets. I'd say find another city for your adventure.

    just don't walk in dark places at night, especially at liquor stores!
    if you are a sureno FUNKTOWN should be safe for you or anything below 20th avenue
    if you are a norteno 23-60's should be safe for you
    if you are a blood 70's should be safe for you
    if you are a border brother 80-100's should be safe for you.
    if you are a drunk Paisa no place is safe for you, if is not gangbangers it's the 5'0 and Immigration
    if you are white just stick to the hills, Jack London Square, and downtown, and nothing will happen to you
    if you are arabian stick to the liquor store's, most are arabian
    if you are asian, Funktown is your town & of course CHINATOWN
    if you are mexican(or other latino's) LA CATORCE, or E' 14, especially Fruitvale
    if you are black, WEST OAKLAND or the 70's
    if you are a LATIN KING just dont come cuz there are no latin kings and you will get shot.
    and if you are a tourist dont go to 94th ave, because there's shootings everyday and you might step in the war zone
