[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is true everywhere in the DMV. For example, many people in 22207 in N Arlington would probably never dare to step foot in most parts of S Arlington where are the slummy apartments are located.[/quote]

I am from moco, has a friend in Wheaton, but I lived in Chevy chase. I live in 22207 now, and pass the “slummy” 22204 apartments all of the time. You know what the difference is? In va, there is very little crime and I feel perfectly safe walking around those “slummy” apartments. The people who live in them are mostly recent immigrants, and they want to work. They work hard, and they aren’t causing any problems crime wise. Can’t say the same about Wheaton. [/quote]

In contrast, in Wheaton, the people who live in the apartments are mostly recent immigrants, who work - doing the jobs you wouldn't want to do at any level of pay, and certainly not the level of pay they are getting for their work.[/quote]

Same with the Arlington people, but we don’t have the gang problem to the extent that MD does. [/quote]

Because you only have a third of the population that Montgomery County does...[/quote]
