[quote=Anonymous]To the posters who said Prince Georges county residents choose high crime, high taxes and bad schools, that the county is only for AA and that Hills or Heights or bad--you are overgeneralizing in a way that perpetuates the very issues you're complaining about. It's because of these stereotypes that the county does not have more diversity in the racial makeup of its residents, or its tax base in terms of companies moving to the county. The OP is renting in an apartment community and did not mention kids, therefore would not be impacted by property taxes or "bad" schools. Safety is paramount and when you tell someone they won't be safe, of course they will stay away--which is not fair if they have not gone and seen for themselves. I'm happy to see that OP is reaching out and asking questions for thwmselves. I'd also say visit the grocery store, walk the trail to the Wilson Bridge, and drive to the Fort Washington and see how you feel from there. Some people will always hate Prince George County, regardless of race or class, in my opinion. They should choose not to live there and refrain from spreading pure negative vitriol as well.[/quote]
