[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Hill has its own pockets of older neighbors who seek quiet (reference the war on the cute backyard tree house story in the WaPo and TV news a couple years back).

I'd argue that crime in DC can be random and violent almost anywhere off the National Mall.

I was never a crime victim on the Hill, while living there for 20 years.  But was held up in G'town by a guy with a gun just two years ago. Was about to get into my car, parked off a dark alley, at 11 PM.  Police were efficient and helpful but, to my knowledge, never got the guy.[/quote]

So true. I was the Previous Poster who lives in G'town. There's so much unreported crime in G'town, due to the tourists and the college students...I am so sorry you were held up by gun...how frightening.

And we did not have problems on the Hill, either, crime wise. But we were 'wise' and didn't wander the neighborhood too far after dark. The newer residents are a bit silly in their beliefs that they can wander out between 11 pm onward and now be held up. It's a city, crime happens...
