[quote=Anonymous]Have lived in upper NW for five years and feel quite safe here. Lived east of the park for 15 years before that and in Dupont Circle for five years before THAT, and generally felt quite safe there, too. There is definitely far less violent crime in the immediate vicinity of my house now in upper NW than there was in Petworth, as well as less open drug dealing and far fewer people obviously in distress from overusing drugs and alcohol near the Metro than there had been there. But even the higher prevalence of that stuff EOTP didn't particularly make me worry for my personal safety. I used to come and go much later at night when I lived there, since I didn't have kids yet, too. Going to stay out of the fight over high school kids here, which doesn't seem productive, except to say that I haven't found the high school kids to be a threat to my personal safety, either.[/quote]
