[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you just read the topics on DCUM you would think that DC was a crime riddled, terrible place with trash in the streets. Then, I look out the window and wave to my neighbor and realize that DC is a wonderful place to live with great people. I see how people get so worked up when they read forums like this. Like murderers are running through our streets with axes. It's ridiculous. I love DC and wouldn't want to live anywhere else! Egad, my kids even attended DC public schools and guess what - they went to college and can read.[/quote] Tell us the wonder bread neighborhood that you live in.[/quote] NE. Between Lamonds Riggs and Takoma.[/quote] Well I live not far from you, and there's trash on my streets and in the alley behind the house. No one on my block sends their kid to the in-boundary DCPS. I like my neighbors but I wouldn't call my neighborhood safe. I certainly wouldn't walk around it after dark. I've lived here for over a decade. My property value has increased rapidly, so that's good, and my commute is ok when wmata wants to function. I like proximity to the parks and the museums, I like food here, I like the people I know. I could do without the trash, and the crime, and I wish the schools weren't generally terrible once you hit middle school. Other than that, DC is great.[/quote]
