Yeah, DC is no joke, especially south east during THE ENTIRE DAY!!! You will get mugged in broad daylight. I try to stay away from south easy. north east is not so bad around the mall.

whats bad where I am at....i live about 30 minutes south of DC...it seems the crime is just floating towards where I live now. been living here for 12 years, and it was not that bad. i lived in prince georges county which is right next to DC pretty much. then it started migrating towards waldorf maryland which is about 6 miles away. i live about 5 miles from prince georges county. luckily I kinda live in the "country" so it's not too bad as of right now.

Last time I went through the Waldorf, MD area, I couldn't believe how much development that place has seen in the last 10 years or so.

When is the last time you went through though is the question. They JUST build a new shopping center, they are building ANOTHER one RIGHT NEXT TO IT! And oh yes, an entire strip of just restaurants are going up now. It's getting really stupid.



And the crime is just migrating right through. I went to the local taco bell, three people sitting on the curb outside in handcuffs. WTF??



All times are GMT -5. The time now is 10:35 PM.
