[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For any longtime resident the answer will be yes. Also many close calls. [/quote] This isn't true: I've lived in the District for 22 years and never been the victim of any crime. (It's possible my mini-grill was stolen off my back porch when I lived in Dupont Circle in the mid-2000s, but I think actually the condo board president for the complex where I lived took it because she thought it violated the rules.)[/quote] You are indeed lucky, as am I. DC native, who only managed to fall victim to two VERY minor property crimes and get flashed on the Metro. That said, I know several people who were murdered (and I'm kind of stunned that no one else has mentioned the same yet in this thread, which must say something about DCUM demographics), one who was violently raped by a stranger in her own apartment, and my grandmother was mugged and had her house broken into numerous times in SE DC years ago.[/quote]
