The issues is that you are GOING to the city. One you live there, you have all your stuff and do your normal thing. You cook at home and play videos games, then read books before walking your dog to the park by your friend's house. Basically: don't extrapolate from the perspective of a tourist.
I'm not talking federal government, which you can't break into unless you're ex military anyway. I am referring to state, county, city government or a university.
