[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We also live in Cap Hill. We see crime happening around us all the time. Everything from kids grabbing a bag of chips at 7-11 and running out to a shooting up our block. It feels lawless and we feel less safe than we did when we moved to the neighborhood 10 years ago. I'm afraid to sit in my car waiting for my kids activities to end because of carjackings. DH has had enough and wants to move. I have had enough but just can't imagine where we would go where we wouldn't trade one problem for another. But really we're probably staying because we like our house and have a super low mortgage payment compared to currently available rates. Financially, moving to the suburbs would be a very bad decision.[/quote] There are parts of DC with significantly less crime that still have the walkability. But yes, the cost of moving is generally prohibitive.[/quote]
