[quote=Anonymous]I live in 20910 near downtown SS. We love the area and have been happy with the schools (one kid in elementary, one in middle). We are close to several parks including the trail along Sligo Creek as well as walking distance to restaurants, the library, grocery store, etc. Tons of young families in the area, and we were able to afford a large, older home with lots of character. That said, I agree that downtown SS has taken a turn for the worse in the last two years. I attribute it to the very disruptive purple line construction combined with an increase in crime in the aftermath of covid. We are hopeful all of this will improve once the construction calms down. The crime already seems to be getting better with neighborhood advocacy and more police presence. The neighborhood is a rare mix of suburban and urban very convenient to downtown DC. And with that come some downsides but lots of upside as well.[/quote]
