Coming to New York for the 1st time

Hey whats up.  I am coming to New York from Northern California with my wife and 2 kids.  We are staying in Jamacia Heights at the Quality Inn about a block from the subway.  Is this area going to be o.k for me and my family.  We are only staying the night.  We are going to the Mets game and then back to the hotel... Thanks for any info. Just want to make sure we will be safe....

You should be fine.  Don't worry.
