[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Frankly, Petworth is at least another 5 years of gentrification away (more like 10) before I would even consider living in it. In it's current state (especially post covid) the current levels of crime (and therefore lack of safety) are far too difficult to ignore. Plus dearth of even half decent schools. [/quote] Where do you live and how much actual experience do you have with Petworth? From the sound of your post you’ve never lived there.[/quote] I have visited quite a few times(know a few people that live there) but yeah true never lived there myself, area does not appeal to me in the slightest. Don't have kids yet but thinking of it soon, and yeah the lack of safety and good schools, plus its distance from work and the parts of DC I frequent make it a no go for me. I currently live in Clarendon. When I first moved to DMV lived in Georgetown (and stayed in that vicinity for a few years after graduation) before moving to Kalorama for a few years. My preference for area DC wise is very much Georgetown, closely followed by Dupont/Admo (the in-between point of those two areas ideally, so that you can walk to either one in a timely manner). [/quote] You sound mighty white![/quote] Why is it that people like you automatically go to race/play the race card as soon as you hear something that you don't like/goes against your beliefs. For your information, I am neither white nor American (am an immigrant)...so maybe don't assume, as they say, "When you assume, you make an ass out of you and me" [/quote] Whatever. You’re still prejudiced. [/quote] People of all races aspire to live in neighborhoods which are safe, clean and well - maintained. [/quote]
