Lol, Seattle is definitely dangerous, thought a doc would be used to it by now. In bigger cities hospitals are in some of the worst neighborhoods imaginable. Especially LA. I'll never forget being sent to East LA Doctors Hosp, I find the entrance to the parking deck. There was a pile of broken cinder blocks where the guard shack used to be. Someone got mad at the security guy and drove their car over the shack.
Just one a dozens of dangerous hospitals I've worked at. Methodist hosp in Indianapolis is another. Herds of crack addicts roaming the neighborhood at night. My hotel was 2 blocks away with an off duty cop working the lobby. At 7:30pm I started out to get something from my rental car. The cop told me in no uncertain terms... don't go! I listened to his advice.
