[quote=Anonymous]to the person who asked if crime is an issue in SW, I think it's less of an issue than in areas of DC where there is more drinking (so more fights) and more stores (so more shoplifting/folks buying things and getting robbed) like U St, Dupont, Barracks Row, etc. East of the metro has more crime than west of the metro. I feel fine walking home from a Nats game but wouldn't walk there after dark alone on a non-game night yet...it's just too quiet. Buying for under $1500 would be tough (maybe a studio in River Park) unless there's a large down payment saved--while prices can be low in some buildings the condo/coop fees are very high. But a rental seems possible...most will be over $1500 but check out Capitol Park Towers and there are occasionally things like http://washingtondc.craigslist.org/doc/apa/3857581867.html It's easy to get to the green/blue/orange lines (and yellow at L'Enfant) and close to the ballpark and arena stage![/quote]
