Ah yes, one of the Montgomery County residents who have never actually been to PG county.  They come and troll the PC county schools forum every time the topic comes up.  It was why we asked for (and were granted) a separate forum from the MD schools forum.  It decreases the number of people like this.

In reality, the vast majority of the crimes in PG county occur in the 3-5% of the county that lies inside the beltway.  Outside the beltway, the crime statistics are much more like Montgomery County.  Fort Washington is fine.[/quote]

That is bull shit, PG crime is nothing like Montgomery county. That is just a BS talking point people say to feel better about them selves and their chioces. The fact is PG has literly 3x-6x more violent crime despite having almost two hundred thousand people less. And on top of that PG is in multi-decade lows that correspond to the increased prosperity of of the DC region. if the DC area regresses or low SES people continue to relocate to PG we will most likely see a reversal of that trend. And the outside the beltway being this anti crime oasis is BS too, be it laurel, greenbelt, Beltsville or many others that are bad school & high crimes areas. The real clue for crime is that every where there is population density. It is that there aren't as many people in the rural areas that accounts for the overall lower crime making some isolated pockets look comparable to urban Montgomery county.  Don't believe me?

I'll never know why people would chose higher taxes, some of the worst schools in the state, some of the highest and most violent crime, disproportionate policing and on and on to buy a house at a discount and then swear there is no reason for said discount. Keep lying to your selves and intrested new comers

Actually that poster is correct 80 percent of crime happens literally in a small pocket in the beltway. Also those areas u name have low crime rates n good schools. What great schools in Moco? U mean great tutors after school? Besides the only good schools there are in places where u have to spend 900k on a 80's split level home...,that's reason enough for me to stay in pg lol[/quote]
