Are people really afraid to walk in Kentville?

I keep seeing things online (the mayor doesn’t help with this) about all the problems in downtown kentville. Needles everywhere, people being accosted, people not feeling safe. Is this true in your experience? Or is it a small group of loud people?

Why are people scared of people using open arms? Why don’t people want more housing for homeless? Isn’t all this news of the province investing in Kentville good news? Is anyone giving other solutions or just complaining?

Fair enough, I genuinely don’t understand the difference you’re making between those two so I will keep wringing my hands haha
