[quote=Anonymous]NP here. We faced this decision five years ago, so things may have changed. I come from a European capital, and really liked the Hill where I thought I'd feel most at home. At the same time, though, I am not used to street crime at all (not an issue in my home city), and the "block-by-block" safety level on the Hill that our agent mentioned made me uncomfortable. Furthermore, my husband, who had spent 10 years in Dupont, thought the Hill was too isolated from NW where our friends live. Finally, there was the issue of public schools beyond elementary, as we are not rich enough to afford private. We might have bought on Hill if we hadn't found a house in upper NW first, but in hindsight, I'm really glad we are in an area where we'll never have to play the charter lottery.[/quote]
