    "it's a safe and bland neighborhood. People stick to people who look like them.shoe inconvenience to not have a metro station nearby, great to be able to walk to the waterfront. I'm not a fan of the hordes of tourists and students specially on the weekends. "

    "So much park space and sidewalk. Area not dense, and traffic much lighter than the rest of the city. Dog walking paradise. "

    "Hidden gem in the city! I’ve lived in the palisades for almost 5 years and I tell everyone I know that I LOVE my neighborhood. This tucked away little gem is in very close proximity to all the city has to offer while offering a safe community to walk your dog, raise your kids, etc."

    "To Crystal City, Key Bridge is hit or miss. MacArthur is always backed up as well. Usually takes me at least 30 minutes either direction"
