It has more rooms 399 vs 287 and more conference rooms 19 vs 12 than the
Crowne Plaza. Plus I bet the parking is better. It's sometimes a
challenge to get a spot in the parking garage at the CP with the
International Food Festival going on at the Dayton Convention Center the
same weekend of Dayton.

My point was that "ubering out" to a different hotel could be a
better solution than walking around the CP area. Times have changed,
yes. So have ways to deal with times changing.

I personally know of two assaults on contesters, one requiring
medical attention, within the immediate area around the CP last year.
My last trip to Dayton in 2018 I was with the K9PG group dining at a
great BBQ place south of the CP and it was just starting to get
'sketchy' then. (we never did find a good place that sold milk shakes
afterwards) Stay in groups and be aware of your surroundings.

I'm only familiar with the area immediately adjacent to the
CrownPlaza, so I can't speak about the "Oregon area".
In my (mis-spent) youth in the Navy I navigated a lot of dark and
sketchy waterfronts in down-scale foreign ports.
In none of them was I ever so apprehensive for my safety as I was this
last May after the Contest Dinner walking
2 blocks from CP to where my vehicle was parked in a surface lot.
Approached twice with offers of intimate horizontal refreshment and
once by a pair of fellows desiring "money for the bus".
