PG is a good place to live if you want to live in a bedroom community, don't have children, and don't mind the high taxes.
But, you can't deny that PG has the highest crime rate in this area, the worst taxes for the money, limited retail, limited white collar jobs, and the worst elected officials and the bond rating is about to drop.

And come on, answer the question, no links, no more ramblings that sound like all the ones you've posted before. Actually provide a thoughtful answer. Hint -- not like the answers you have provided before.
And what does the victim's race in Briggs Chaney have to do with the price of eggs? Again, you emphasize the racial, and that really does call your credibility into question.

Again, you were wrong when you referred to Briggs Chaney as "upscale," because it's not. You're comparing apples to oranges.
Why do you think SEDC and PG Cty are the worst areas when it comes to crime.

Ask yourself why SEDC and PG Cty are the worst areas when it comes to crime. That's a question that seems to stump many.
There's no other area in the WMA that has so much corruption in government from top to bottom.

Whatever. I said upscale MoCo, not upscale Briggs Chaney. Just answer my question. And while you're at it, have fun running down the races of the victims and perps in these links, since apparently the only way you can communicate is through linking to news stories. Looking forward to the excuses you provide this time.

You guys, quit replying to him. The more you reply to him, the more he will post. He's just one person on this forum, looking for attention. You know you're happy with your area, and that's all that matters. Not what someone [who is most likely lonely] says about PGC. He really doesn't have credibility since all he does is bash PGC at every chance.

So there you go. Why reference "upscale Moco" while referring to Briggs Chaney? It doesn't make sense.
It's like me referencing "upscale PG" while pointing out Capitol Heights.
Ummm, you can keep pulling up references of crimes in other counties, but it doesn't scratch the surface of the fact that PG has THE highest crime rates in the WMA.
PERIOD!
Your county takes that award, hands down!

Sorry, you're mistaken.
It's not about my credibility.
It's about the news reported by the news sites.
They have more credibility than you or anyone else defending PG b/c they don't have a vested interest.

That's not the topic of the thread. You're saying that the county's high crime rate means Bowie is dangerous. You're just doing the opposite of the person who said Briggs-Chaney was upscale, that's all.

Because Prince Georges is a scary place sorta like a Halloween 13 movie or an urban Deliverance movie in real life.

Murders in a swath of the Mid-Atlantic, 2008
Now lurkers and posters what does the data say?
