Agree with this - Harlem is north of 125 on the West Side and north of 96 on the East Side.

 

Ok then I'll restate the question again:

If anyone is familiar with the area around Columbia/Morningside, are there parts you would recommend avoiding especially for a girl? Thanks!

Yes bring a gun, UFO likes a challenge.

Under my tutelage, you will grow from boys to men. From men into gladiators. And from gladiators into SWANSONS.

I would say Manhattan is fairly safe as there is always a lot of activity going around. That said I wouldn't walk alone in Central Park at night or in other areas where there is little traffic. Columbia/Morningside is generally safe, but if you want added security you should be prepared to pay extra for apartments that have a lobby/doorman instead of renting a walkup.

 

I love Morningside Heights! :D Roar Lion Roar!!!

OP, it's absolutely safe as long as you aren't an idiot. Don't walk out alone at like 3am or something and you'll be fine.
