[quote=Anonymous]For people who moved here in the 2008 to 2016 time frame, crime is getting worse. It's really about expectations and feelings. Those people were not here when Hains Point was an open air drug market or when 14th Street was a no-go zone unless you were looking for a streetwalker. Those same people - who moved to DC when they were young and reckless - probably now have some assets, have kids, are more cognizant of safety issues, etc. Perceptions matter. Irrational feelings drive a lot of voting behavior. [/quote]
