Besides the verifiability problem, such tagging would discriminate one

where does such political correctness end? Consider that mapping
brothels, landfills, busy roads and many other features will allow
someone to draw conclusions about the socioeconomic status of the
Area. Most of the time you can deduce income status purely by
the geometry of houses and roads.

Surely then that is enough and we shouldn't need to flag 'dangerous'
areas?
I think if you were to do something like this you would have to underpin
it with crime stats or something.
As a semi-off-topic aside - this was actually the subject of an episode
of 'The Good Wife'...!
