[quote=Anonymous]We live in Georgetown and the plane noise depends a bit. You hear it much more on cloudy days and you also hear it much more the closer to the river you are. The comparison with Palisades is deceiving, because even though they are further from the airport, they often have planes flying directly overhead. You don't get that in Georgetown. On crime, yes, we do hear about more robberies, petty theft etc but it is not like you have to worry about drive by shootings at daytime. As a PP said, Georgetown remains one of the safest parts of DC. As far as residents, it depends too. I have met all sorts of people (lawyers, feds, WB/IMF, designers, retirees, students), but actually no hedge fund manager. I can't tell you how it changed from 20 years ago, as we only moved in 5 years ago, but it changed actually quite a bit during that period too. Pandemic hit it badly, many places closed, but now it became extremely vibrant and lively again with tons of new restaurants and cafes. If that is something you value, it is a good part of town to live.[/quote]
