According to neighborhood scout Charlottesville has a significantly higher violent crime rate than College Park. Charlottesville is trauma central.

Was Charlottesville in contention for the HQ?

No. No, it was not.

You are not very smart, PP.

I like Charlottesville. It’s really good news that College Park is so much safer. I was surprised

Yet another Virginian who has never visited the area, but slings outdated lies at PG County to hide their racist bias against "those people"

Do you deny that PG has the worst reputation for government corruption in the Washington metropolitan area? That’s a huge drag on the perception of PG as a good place for companies and organisations to locate there.

Yes, that concept is very outdated. When Rushern Baker was elected in 2010 (13 years ago!), he started eliminating the policies that created the corrupt reputation. He eliminated the "pay to play" policies and started more transparent policies. Angela Alsobrooks has continued the clean up and the county is currently no worse than other beltway counties.

If you haven't been paying attention to the news for the last 13 years, I can understand why you still have that perception.

A few thousand FBI agents living nearby will make a difference

Imagine those 91 Virginia counties that are poorer than Prince George’s.

Most of them have lower costs of living, much lower tax burdens, more affordable housing, better traffic, more efficient local governments, and an overall high quality of life. Also, folks on average are much nicer than the smug a-holes who infest the DC area.

Just shows what a wealthy state Maryland is. PG is only middle of the pack of Md but at the tippy top if it was in Va.

They should give it to Va. I didn’t realize how much richer Md is plus basically owning DC a the Potomac River all the best privates and country clubs, the best state Capitol a better higher education community .. all the pro franchises. ..A Big Ten public . Va doesn’t deserve one more humiliation.

Very true. It really sounds like the FBI agents want to be in VA where there is more crime.

These are just not good reasons for changing a decision that will cost millions of dollars extra for taxpayers.

MD has those benefits, but Virginia is still the economic development region of the Washington suburbs. There's a lot of money in NoVa and comparing the proposed location with counties in RoVa that are outside of the Washington metro area are just not reasonable comparisons. The GSA chose the site that would cost the federal government the least amount of money and would develop the project the fastest. Major cost savings and major time savings are two of the priorities for the GSA when making real estate decisions and they used them to make this decision. Springfield is too expensive and too time-costly to develop a reasonable FBI HQ in a reasonable amount of time.

And that is what the IG and Congressional investigations are going to find.

I hear you. Hardscrabble Springfield and poorer Virginia needs this. In confederate Va Transitory 2nd ranked Amazon headquarters isn’t going to cut it against perminant Federal campus located in snooty Lacrosse center.. Georgetown/B1G UMD/USNA Annapolis/Johns Hopkins ..Better managed and more beautiful Md with its arrogant country clubs, infinite number of private schools and natural beauty. Va needs the FBI just to save face … be compassionate and give the at least one bone !! Md side of the river shouldn’t get all the pro sports franchises, the nation’s capital, the Potomac river and the power of being the Nations richest state. It’s so frustrating.
