    "Neighborhood isn’t bad for the most part. Pretty quiet and everyone speaks. My car was broken into because family member didn’t lock my door, they didn’t get anything but money out my cup holder and my aux cord. Every now and then you will hear gunshots. Esp on New Years. It was my first New Years and it was too much."

    "A few neighbors have poorly secured fences and so, occasionally the dogs get out. The dogs are typically friendly but do not appear as such due to their size and breed."

    "I'm fairly new to the area. I'm not fond of it but it could be worse off. I do like that a lot of the vacant homes are being bought, renovated, and lived in as opposed to just being flippers."

  • Monea G.
    "The commute is convenient during the week, and a little less so on the weekends. The V1 takes you to the national mall area via navy yard and south west. Otherwise, the U8 and W4 or the blue line metro are the primary modes of public transportation."

    "My family has lived in this neighborhood for over five years. We've never had any issues with safety. Best things about this area are the metro bus/train lines. There are lots of nice families with kids; most are low-income. Schools are not great with the exception of one of DC's best charter schools: KIPP DC. Things that need to be improved: some properties are unkempt, there are very few public parks/playgrounds, and the only sit-down restaurant is a Denny's. City services used to be atrocious, but got a lot better when Fenty became mayor. Overall, this is a nice place to live. It's residential, on its way up, and most people are friendly. And the proximity to Capitol Hill for the price cannot be beat!"
