Not the case. Owner recently got a promotion and moving back up north to their other home.

This doesn't mean that crime isn't an issue.

So the guys job knew he lived in a heavy crime neighborhood and offered him a promotion to move? Got it.

It may not have affected the decision to move, but it absolutely does affect the price.

How much crime?

Well, there were two shootings in Petworth today. Both in the middle of the afternoon.

Over a mile from this house though. I don't know that block specifically, but I'm a mile from those shootings as well and our blocks are very peaceful and quiet. It's one thing not to trust the crime rates in DC in general, but "Petworth" covers a huge area and your experience really depends on where exactly you live.

For me it's not a deal-breaker, but also understanding that living at a 4 way stop could likely affect the value of my home a bit.

The dealbreaker is the area itself. While it's a beautiful house (but with an underwhelming kitchen), you can't change the location.

I'm surprised that people are saying that the corner lot is a deal breaker. I'm not in Petworth, but in my part of the city, corner lots usually go for a significant premium.

It's listed for $1.1 million. That's "very low" for Petworth now?

Corner lots are a dealbreaker, the kitchen is a joke, and the price is delusional

I got mugged around there a few years back in broad daylight (morning)

Please ask them where the chair is from. Thanks

I get 3 violent crime alerts/day easy in Petworth. Crime is a real issue.
