[quote=Anonymous]In the 90s, DC was super cheap. Now the quality of life - safety and basic city services like 911 answering and sending help to correct address is worse and prices are very high. I don't see downtown rebounding despite all the rhetoric. Metro was safe in the 90s, now there are shootings and stabbings in stations during rush hour. I'm not sure I believe in gentrification anymore. Seeing the upward arc of areas like U/Shaw, Chinatown and Columbia Heights and now the backsliding and increasing violence, it's both concerning and quite sad. [/quote]
