[quote=Anonymous]I lived in DC for most of my life. Kids were born here. I lived in Adams Morgan in the 80s and paid $400 a month in rent for a 2 bedroom apartment. We bought in Shaw in the 90s, so I'm used to crime in DC. It changed in DC when the city started really gentrifying and the crimes became much more violent. After a shooting at the school near us (and two kids died) we moved to Maryland. I don't love it - and I miss the city, but I was ready to not hear gun shots nightly.[/quote]
