Move out of the ghetto ASAP. I know this is easier said than done but if you are concerned for your saftey and your employer is obviously not, find a job somewhere else. You stated that you had 23 years of experience. I would be willing to bet that there is someone out there that is looking for someone with your qualifications.
If you don't want to move, you can either break company policy or go unarmed. It is that simple. If the policy states "no firearms" then they will probably not make one exception just for you. I work for a company that has a similar policy. The area in which I work does not have a high crime rate but if it did , I would look for another place of employment.
If you do not want to move and insist on carring to work, buy a lock box for your vehicle and keep quiet about it.
