[quote=Anonymous]I sometimes wonder if I live in the same SS as all the people in this thread. I walk around DTSS about twice per day and have had no problems. My house is about a five minute walk away, and I've had one package (worth about $30) go missing in 15 years. Even on a chilly night like tonight, DTSS was peaceful and normal, with lots of people skating on the Veterans Plaza ice rink and going to the many independent restaurants in the area. I'm not sure what dysfunction people are talking about. It's probably the densest area of the county, so I'm sure that crime happens, but I personally have never witnessed anything other than teens shoplifting drinks and snacks from the CVS. We have breweries, a concert venue, a performing theater venue, an independent movie theater, tons of restaurants, and a nice library -- all within a radius of a few blocks. I rarely use my car.

I wouldn't want to live anywhere else in the DMV (and with my low housing costs here, having bought 15 years ago, I have saved enough to be able to easily afford to live in a SFH in Bethesda if that was what I wanted, but I don't).[/quote]
