When I lived in the Abbey area there were two sensible routes back to my house from town. One was along the riverside path (unlit except by the moon); the other was along Newmarket Road. The riverside route was much nicer, but after a while I started to worry about muggers hiding in shadows, so I started to prefer the well-lit main road route - and it was there that a pair of muggers spotted me and followed me to a less public location.
If I had it to do over again, I'd go back to the unlit cycle path. Urbanisation doesn't seem to be all it's cracked up to be.
