If you've been in a town that has a strip club not named Scores and seen the neighborhood, I can't see how anybody would think it wouldn't be any worse if that's a localized area where prostitutes can congregate and ply their trade.

All this depends on how the prostitution is conducted. I have no argument with restricting the manner in which it is conducted, for example to comply with zoning laws that prohibit businesses in residential areas.
