the hood had the best hidden gems so they are def worth going to, just gotta be street smart and chill out and try to blend in.

Word, I hear what you're saying. Most of us from hoods know how to carry ourselves,
but none of us are just going to walk straight into a ball of fire either. People are not
always as bad as you think for the most part tho. We're not savages and cannibals out
here, despite the few people with their screws loose. We're mostly just trying to enjoy
life and mind our business.

Like most of the people on C-D you picked the most extreme example possible. No, DC is not Detroit but how many cities are. SMFH DC is also not Boston, SF, Seattle, NYC or Portland either. You all can talk to me about how safe it is here when DC makes the Safest big cities list.

Umm hell yes!!! Here's one.... It's always funny how this recent Gentrification has made people sleep on DC. Do it at your own peril.

He asked for a comparison with an American city, so that's what I gave him. It also happens to be the city I knoww best. I never said DC was among the safest big cities. I have no idea if it is, but gentrification has changed things. It's not the same as it was.
