This is something I've always believed too. The freaks and weirdos can't be bothered to be up and out at 5-6am or so. And I always feel pretty safe in crappy weather too, cause that "type of personality" is probably also a wimp when it comes to weather. I don't wander around cavalierly, but I have never felt unsafe running at o'dark thirty for the last 4 or so years in my own neighborhood as well as on the road (business trips, etc). I wear reflective gear, headlamp etc and just stay very aware of my surroundings. (NO music for me either.... part personal preference, part just being cautious.)

I believe you, but maybe it depends on the type of "type of personality" we're talking about. I know in my neighborhood there are plenty of people out and about and looking for trouble at that hour. I live in an urban (<ahem> "up-and-coming") neighborhood and 5 am can actually be pretty scary. Just my experience: the drunks are asleep at this hour; the potheads are asleep...the crackheads...not so much.
