[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know a few families on the Hill. Several are making plans to move. Those who cannot or chose not to do so have doubled down on denying and minimizing risk.

It is striking to me that as crime rises, discussion of it is increasingly policed. On ND, factual threads are swiftly deleted. Popville closed comments on crime articles a while ago, they used to be quite lively. Neighborhood lists are tightly moderated. It is also concerning. As is the increasing randomness of crime.

Well I know TONS of families on the Hill because I live here and none of them are making plans to move because of crime. There are conversations about recent incidents of violent crime and we’ve definitely had conversations about what should be done. But none of us think “anonymous concern trolling on the internet” is the solution. Thanks for your input tho, dude.[/quote]

I moved because of crime and I know three other families who also moved. Last year DC experienced a large drop in population. At least some of these people moved due to quality of life issues. [/quote]

We moved because of crime/quality of life and that was before it got as bad as it is now. Most of our friends who lived on the Hill have moved too.  [/quote]
