[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are different property crimes everywhere, but I feel safe in NW. In 1980s through mid 1990s, in Cleveland park, my house was broken into 3 times. Once by axing through a substantially heavy front door to override alarm somehow. All were day time robberies when house empty. I’ve lived in my current house in Chevy Chase, DC since mid 90s and have always felt safe, but things still happen and there has been an increase lately. I the late 90s, neighbors and I both had daytime break ins with minor things stolen, but nothing since in terms of break ins. However, in the last year, my car’s airbag was stolen, neighbors have had airbags and catalytic converters stolen, there have been armed car jackings within a few blocks in two directions and two nearby CVS locations and the Safeway have had multiple smash and grab robberies. There have also been smash and grab robberies nearby in Friendship Heights. [/quote] “Lately”? There have been countless armed robberies, car jackings, and home invasions in Forest Hills since at least 2021. I’ve been here as long as you have and I miss the good old days of a daytime breaking and entering when no one is home. This is much different and much more dangerous. Wake up. [/quote]
