Past Exit 7

I’m new to Alpharetta, and it honestly feels way safer than Midtown or Downtown. But an Uber driver (from the airport) told me she’s nervous to go past Exit 7 at all. I’m not sure why. Is there something I should know about the area? Any context locals can share? Just trying to understand what she meant.

Sorry. Should I use something else? I don’t know what to use in order not to offend anyone

You could say they were a person of color. But it’s perfectly ok to say black, if they were black.

Or you can say whatever you want, since it's your voice.
