I mean, that's the same thing for Atlanta. It's expensive to live in the city of Atlanta like Midtown etc., so to be near stuff, you have to have money. Same goes for NYC and every other city. If you can't afford it, you have no choice but to move out into Laurel or Largo and come into the city which Bajan would make you believe people can't come into the city without having their passport.

I said there is more pedestrian traffic in parts of Bed-Stuy than there is in Georgetown. Fulton is a very busy street and looks like a slightly scaled-down version of 125th Street during the day.
Are we really going to use Google streets here? If that's the case, then one could easily make the argument that DC is a languid ghosttown.
