I think the source of your confusion is that VA is typical of the U.S. in that it loves guns. Arlington is home to a gun shop that the FBI has said is a leading supplier of guns used in crime. And people shoot their guns everywhere:

In MD, we don't like guns, and in that sense, we are indeed more like a foreign country.
PG County had 88 murders in 2023. Arlington had 2.
Next.
Like Baltimore and ghettos in DC. Yikes

I can't believe there is even a comparison. MD counties have dropped so low that all the high earners are moving towards VA. Taxes are high in MD too and it is becoming a ghetto. You can see how difficult it is to do business in MD and that shows everything.

Well, it doesn’t seems true for MD, because average housing price is much higher in MD than VA.
Look at Baltimore and bad areas of DC. The property values will continue to go down if there is a good amount of voucher housing and a lot of them go to Blacks.

VA has a larger percentage of Hispanics and illegal immigrants, and they aren't helping the schools or the property values in certain otherwise desirable neighborhoods. The whole area is falling apart compared to similar suburbs in LA, SF, NY, NJ and MA.

Check post 18:34. Typical comment from VA folks.
NoVA is one of the most diverse places in the country.

Have you been to Clarendon at night? Yikes. Thug central.
How about South Arlington? Lots of elementary schools that are almost entirely hispanic.

MD has better schools. Better politics in MD.
Maryland is true blue, VA is a wannabe blue.
